Well, it's not a bug per se, but I really think that the capture syntax manpage should be part of libpcap and not of tcpdump. I know of a few systems that have wireshark installed but not tcpdump. Also, it is possible to build tcpdump with older versions of libpcap where the capture syntax might be different. Would a patch to move the capture syntax into its own manpage and into the libpcap package be acceptable? If so, I'm willing to produce one. ciao Joerg -- Joerg Mayer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.
