Hello all, im newbee with Tethereal.
Im on a debian box with Ethereal 0.10.10 fresh install.
On my command line a type Tethereal -a duration:600 (Four 5 minutes of
Capture) -w sniffiles.cap

When i open the capture files on my Windows 2000 with Ethereal 0.10.10,
i have always an error..

"The capture file appears to have been cut short in the middle of a
packet."

Or 

"The capture file appears to be damaged or corrupt.
(pcap: File has 4194314-byte packet, bigger than maximum of 65535)"


Some one can help me?
Some one have some example of a good command qith argument to use
Ethereal?
Thank
