How do I filter all the traffic to one IP?

If you want to see only traffic *to* that IP address (and not traffic *from* that IP address), you'd use

	dst host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

If you want to see traffic to and from that address, you'd use

	host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

I am trying to monitor the traffic to my mail server. When I do ip host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx it shows my traffic to it from my machine, but not the rest of my users.

Are the rest of your users running machines other than the machine on which you're running Ethereal?

If so, see
