What r u checking for as response . 
a) Is it the ping reply like this

[shine@shine shine]$ ping 192.168.0.84
PING 192.168.0.84 (192.168.0.84) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.0.84: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.057 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.0.84: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.029 ms

b) or are u checking for
any ping reply from 192.168.0.256 through tcpdump
(and I think it must be an ICMP packet).
[shine@shine shine]$ tcpdump -i eth0

If u r checking the response like the former option (a), it 
may not work ... since u will not get any ping reply from 192.168.0.203
and the ping is checking for the reply from 192.168.0.203.
So better go for the second one, u will get a response.
