Thanks for the replies.

I will check about firewalling/iptables with network administrator.  
But , when I call lwip_connect(), the outgoing packet should be seen by,  "tcpdump - i tap0"
Am I right?

Also I am running red hat Linux 8 on Windows XP, using VMWare.  Could that be a problem?

But I am able to run normal socket based client-server sample on Linux.  and also across, my Linux and  XP.

Do you have firewalling/iptables configured? That could be dropping your
TAP packets.
