Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] I need help with "Capture Filter"

From: Chuck H Wilson <chuck_wilson1@xxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2012 00:26:29 -0700
As the subject line states: I need help getting WireShark's capture filter to work.
 
I have put together details of the problem(s) I'm having, but in keeping with the request of keeping the E-mail file size small, and not sending more information that would be useful for now, I'm just providing the WireShark version that I'm running, the platform I'm running on, and a brief description of my problem.
 
If someone would please respond to the message, I will provide them with further details.
 
ChuckW.

The display filter works great.  But no matter what I enter in to the capture filter, I can not keep the network traffic from being captured.

By the way, my window/dialog screens, don't look like those depicted in the user's guide examples.
