Okay, now that I have Ethereal working properly I'm
ready to begin capturing only packets I'm looking for.
 I let Etheral capture everything, including the
kitchen sink, then looked at the filter statements.  I
am only interested in capturing packets from a single
workstation on my home network.

I figured I'd simply filter as such "ip eq
192.168.1.3" but I get "Unable to parse filter string
(Parse error)" instead.

When I select Capture from the menu, then select
start, I simply enter "ip eq 192.168.1.3" in the
filter field, then select ok.  I've also tried "(ip eq
192.168.1.3)".  When I try it this second way I get
"Unable to parse filter string (parse error). X3,8"

Anyone have any idea what's up with my filtering??

Anthony
