Hi,

I keep seing reproductions off the tcpdump manpage (I use tcpdump just
fine) in answer to capture filter questions. However I get parse errors
from etheral even when using a tcpdump command line which works (the
only success I have had so far is the filter "icmp" which doesn't
actually seem to filter anything.

Can sombody who has done  successfull capture filters PLEASE put some
examples somewhere (the man page, this list, the web site) !!!!!!!

Waiting patiently in hope (please no more copies of the tcpdump man
page)


Dale
