Re: Tshark output in apache log format

["j.snelders" <j.snelders () telfort nl>]

Hi Jeffs,

Did you use the option -w outfile?

See tshark -h or the manpage:
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/tshark.html
-w <outfile> | -

    Write raw packet data to outfile or to the standard output if outfile
is '-'.

    NOTE: -w provides raw packet data, not text. If you want text output
you need to redirect stdout (e.g. using '>'), don't use the -w option for
this.

Best regards
Joke
