Strange that it would work the other way for an older version. Oh well,
works fine now. Thanks!

You need to put the filter in quotes so that the OS sees it as
one word:
tshark -f "`cat /path/to/my_filter`"
should do the trick. Just tried it myself:
sablo@for-gods-sake ~
$ cat filter
host 10.31.103.64 or
host 10.31.100.254
sablo@for-gods-sake ~
$ tshark -f `cat filter`
tshark: Capture filters were specified both with "-f" and with additional command-line arguments
sablo@for-gods-sake ~
$ tshark -f "`cat filter`"
Capturing on eth0
0 packets captured
sablo@for-gods-sake ~
$
Hope this helps, cheers,
Sake
