I just installed version 0.10.0 on a WIN32 platform (win2k).  After reading the help and searching online documentation, I can not get a simple capture filter to work.  All I want to do is capture all packets with a certain MAC address.  It looks like ether aa.bb.cc.dd.ee.ff should do it but all I get is a parse error.  Any ideas? 

	ether host aa.bb.cc.dd.ee.ff
"ether aa.bb.cc.dd.ee.ff" isn't valid without "host" - there's also "ether proto", for example, so "ether" by itself isn't sufficient.
