I see your point.  My attempt using tshark didn't produce very good results
either.

tshark -r kdcqueries.pcap -Y dns.resp.addr -T fields -e frame.number -e
dns.resp.name -e dns.resp.addr

There does seem to be a limitation in the search feature where it only finds
a packet containing a match, but not each highlighted matching instance of
the search criteria within a packet when you "search next/previous".
