Ariel..

On *Nix distributions, I use command line specifications for captures in 
simple shell scripts.  for instance...

ethereal -i eth1 -f "net 192.168.0.0/24 and port 110" -k

this will start ethereal with the capture defined as listening to ethernet 1 
interface, and looking for traffic on port 110 on network 192.168.0.0/24..  
(192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0) the -k at the end means to start the capture 
now.  If you omit the -k at the end, it will preload the capture filter but 
you will still have to manually start the capture.
