How to save the packages received by a network interface or some port in a file and resend the packages received when needed?

[king6cong at gmail.com]

In fact,UDP is enough for me,I heared that tcpdump and netcat can store and
resend the udp packages to get the replay effect,but I don't know how, or is
there some better way? I am working on a Linux server and only some basic
terminal tools are available :)
