Have you tried tethereal? What you're looking for could probably be done with:

tethereal -r <originalfile> -R <yourfilter> -w <newfile>

can ethereal split a cap file based on a filter ?

i have a cap file (pretty huge) and i wanted to sort
out relevant packets based on a filter and make a new
cap file (which would be much smaller than the
original one) and would be portable to manage.

thanks
