Public addresses can not talk to loopback addresses (127.X). This is an
intentional security restriction in the TCP/IP stack.

Also I don't think using TPROXY internally on the same server is even
intended to work. It's intended use is on traffic being routed by the
proxy to some other servers (i.e. Internet).
