Is it possible that Ethereal does not capture all packets? I am sure
that one of my client generate TCP traffic as well, but ethereal capture
only Browser Election Requests or ARP, NBNS or DHCP messages. And no
TCP/IP traffic . Why? Should I change some settings? The funny is that
from other clients it captures TCP/IP as well. Thank you!

How is the network configured? Are the machines to and from which you're trying to capture traffic plugged into a switch? Are you capturing on some machine other than the clients, or are you running it on one of the clients?

 
The machines are plugged into a switch. The clients can capture each other, if I run it on clients. But there are no tcp/ip traffic from one of my clients, but on that client I see that it generates TCP traffic.. why cannot I see from the other client?
