 Fix bug #1409:
 
 There is an error in the page:
 http://wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChCapCaptureFilterSection.html
 
 According to Example 4.2, the filter 'tcp port 23 and not host 10.0.0.5'
 captures all telnet traffic not from 10.0.0.5. But this filter also discards
 traffic to 10.0.0.5. Either you use this filter to capture all telnet traffic
 not to and not from 10.0.0.5 or you use filter 'tcp port 23 and not src host
 10.0.0.5'.

Hi!
My fault, that this example was wrong.
While technically correct, your fix don't seem to fit well with my 
intention of the text ;-)
It might be better to use the term "to/from" and use the old filter 
string. This way it keeps to explain the not operator - and only the not 
operator.
To explain more things like src/dst and alike, some new examples should 
be added at the XXX mark instead.
On the other hand, this section needs a review/rewrite anyway ...
