| Hi,
| I wud like 2 know how does one save only the marked packets in a
packet
| trace.When i try doing the same, i get an error
|
| "Ethereal does not support writing capture files in that format.'

This meas that Ethereal has no means to write packets in the packet
file format used in the capture file you opened (that is the default
one Ethereal will try to use when *writing* to a capture file).

| What i am trying to do is save only the LAPD link type packets from
the
| general usage traces of Toshiba ISDN router (these traces are frm
the
| sample traces of ethereal web-site.

Try saving in another packet capture file format (e.g., libpcap).

Best regards,

Olivier
