I have some huge capture files that are to large to load into Ethereal (v0.10.12).
Please update from your ancient Ethereal to a recent Wireshark version :-)

Is there a utility to break up a file into chunks of a specified size so that they are always broken at a capture record boundary?
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/editcap.html is what you need.
