Things are a little different now with 1.4.x, with respect to entering rpcap
remote IP addresses.  Now the interface is a drop-down box for Local or Remote
and if you choose remote, a dialog box appears where you fill in the remote
host information such as Host, Port and Authentication credentials, if
applicable.  Refer to section 4.6.1 of the user guide for more details:

Ian, are you able to upgrade to 1.4.2 to avoid this bug?

In any event, I don't really see this bug getting fixed for 1.2.x now that
we've moved on to 1.4.x and would suggest closing it as wontfix, simply because
it's not applicable anymore.
