Hi,

You can use FireDaemon:
http://www.firedaemon.com
This programm offers you a lot of options and flexibility.

You can create a lot of different batch-files with 
different options to start i.e. tshark as a service:
- use various capture filters
- multiple files
- ringbuffer
- different start/stop times on all or different days
... and so on

TB-harddisks aren't that expensive anymore ;-)

Thanks
Joan
