Hi.  I've got a bunch of snort sensors logging to a mysql database, and I'd 
like to be able to view those packet captures in Ethereal.  Is there a *really 
simplistic* capture format that Ethereal supports?  Something plain-text 
mayhaps?

I'd really love to be able to take the packet capture from the mysql database 
w/ some perl and produce a libpcap style capture file.  It doesn't look like 
that's going to be an easy task though.
