Hi guys

 

I’m trying to track down a hacker(s) who attempts to hack into one of my servers at night between 1 and 3 am GMT. What I’d like to be able to do is to run wireshark as a scheduled task to start capturing packets at 1am and finish at 3am. Is there currently anyway to do this without resorting to a script? Hope you can help as it will save me a few late nights!
