Title: Tethereal error: "Tethereal can't save this capture in that format"

Running 0.10.12 on a Redhat Linux box, Tethereal will not allow us to save files in ngwsniffer_2_0 format using the -F and -w options. 

Here is the version information:

This is GNU tethereal 0.10.12

 (C) 1998-2005 Gerald Combs <gerald[AT]ethereal.com>

Compiled with GLib 2.4.7, with libpcap 0.8.3, with libz 1.2.1.2,

without libpcre, with Net-SNMP 5.1.2, without ADNS.

NOTE: this build doesn't support the "matches" operator for Ethereal filter

syntax.

Running with libpcap version 0.8.3 on Linux 2.6.9-11.ELsmp.

Are we missing something on the box or is this a limitation of this version of tethereal on Linux?

Thanks,

Shawn.
