You're assuming that Tethereal allows you to specify a multi-token
capture filter without putting it in quotes.  Try

	tethereal -f "ip host 192.168.1.1"

(it'd have to take the filter as regular command-line arguments, rather
than as a subargument of the "-f" flag, to make it work without quotes;
we'll look into doing that).
