Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] Display Filter for text string in TCP payload
My bad!
Both 'tcp contains "text"' and 'frame contains "text"' *do* work.
My mistake was that it didn't dawn on me that the filters are CASE
SENSITIVE (which makes sense now that I think about it). When I had
successfully used Edit/Find, the Case Sensitive checkbox was off, so it
succeeded where the filter had not.
Thx for the 'enlightenment'.

Hmmm... 'tcp contains "PASS"' does display the packets with
the FTP pass command in my trace. I'm wondering why it does
not work for you?
Cheers,
