Hello,

Capturing with tshark and using the -w option only works for /root and /tmp.
Unfortunately, I am not able anymore to create a file in eg. /home/user1/trace,
even if the rights are 777 and ownership root:root.

Error Message is:
tshark: Child capture process exited: exit status 2

Old version 0.99.5 does not have this issue.

Hope someone can help.
Regards,
Manuel
