Is there anyone that knows the status of the Capture Trigger functionality?????
 
We need to be able to capture ALL ethernet traffic until a specific failure occurs.  Currently, we have to use a capture filter in order to get Ethereal to stop capturing when a specific device crashes.  This means we can not capture the potential cause.

Subject: Capture Trigger!!!

I've searched through the email archive & found several occurrences, but nothing saying whether or not the functionality exists in Ethereal (I'm not going to use SNORT!!!).  Back in 2003, it looked like implementation was imminent.  What's the status of the Capture Trigger (stopping capture)?
