Hi,
 
To search it efficiently you need a couple of things:
1- The source IP and destination IP
2- Where to search in the trace
    The place to look at would be the HEX part of data which would be
     the  at the last third of the ETHEREAL screen.
After you stop capturing you can filter the display by source and destination IP addresses. This
I hope you are also using 0.10.3 or higher version!
The best way to check exactly at what packet would be activating the analyzer just before yo enter a user name and password for a remote access. If the password is not sent CLEAR  but encrypted you will not see the real password.
 
I hope that helps.
By the way the http://www.ETHEREAL.ORG site contains user guides as well.
