[Elvis.Sisic@xxxxxx]

Hey! 

Thanx for the quick response!

If i do it as described below, i get
another error!

1.) Error reading from pipe: Bad
address

2.) As no data was captured, closing
the temporary capture file

        Cheers!
Elvis

If that is the -i problem this should work:

$ mkfifo pcap_fifo
$ ethereal -i pcap_fifo -n -k -S -l -p &
$ ssh user@machine "/usr/local/sbin/tcpdump -i qfe1 -xX -w-"
 >> pcap_fifo
