Greetings from the great State of Misery, err Missouri. :)

Is there a way to setup a filter so that Ethereal only looks at ONE IP
on the network?

We ran into a problem this week with SOMETHING being sent to one of our
HP Jetdirect boxes over and over again and we needed to find out the
source IP.

We used Ethereal (that gets installed with RH 7.3) and it worked fine -
but just wanted to know if there was a way to only sniff one IP address
that we happen to be having problems with so we don't have to wade thru
the entire log.

Thanks!
