I'm trying to capture all the plain text over the wire
of a telnet session. I'm running rh linux 6.2 -
successfully compiled without ethereal(not running X).
I get entries written to the screen, but it is SYN/ACK
type of date, not raw text. This is my command(ip
changed of course):

tethereal -f  "tcp port 23 and
host x.x.x.x" 

I get data like the following which isn't what I'm
after:

TCP
4503 > telnet [ACK] Seq=2484472608 Ack=1500569399
Win=13870 Len=0

Version is:  tethereal -version
tethereal 0.9.4, with GLib 1.2.6, with libpcap 0.4,
with libz 1.1.3, without UCD SNMP

Please point me to a RTFM(read the man page alot
already), or another way if possible. 

Thanks for any replies,
T
