Hi,

You're trying to use a read filter as display filter for a running capture. That is not supported. You can use -R with -r.

You might want to file a improvement request on bugzilla for that.

Jaap,

I posted a comment about the same to ws-dev [1] a while back (to support '-R' with '-k'. The patch I supplied with it didn't work too well. Let me know if you want me to add it to the bug.

thx,

Jason
