There's no general "string match" instruction in the BPF pseudo-machine 
used for capture filters, nor are there any backwards branches in the 
BPF pseudo-machines in various OS kernels (so that you can't load a 
pseudo-program that can loop infinitely), so there's no way to look for 
CONNECT at any arbitrary offset in the packet.

You can look for it at a *specific* offset in the packet, although it's 
not easy to construct the expression:
