Thx.

It is strange...
My eth0 has the IP 192.168.16.23

I tried:
  tshark -i eth0 -V -T text -f "tcp port 8880" -d "tcp.port==8880,http" -R http.request

and:
  telnet 192.168.16.23 8880
  GET / HTTP/1.0

telnet sends back my web page correctly; but tshark does not capture anything...
  0 packets captured

If I remove the -f "..", it captures all the regular traffic from my firefox correctly, except my telnet 8880...
I tried port 80 and same problem...
Any idea?

Thx,
JD
