Just add the line "wireshark&" to /etc/rc.localWill wireshark be able to select the interface by just adding the above line ? I think, it will only start the wireshark. use the "-i <interface>" option. "wireshark -h" will show you the commandline options available.
Interesting ! So invoking the wireshark by adding the line "wireshark&" to /etc/rc.local along with the '-i' option solves the interface selection problem. I checked the below link -http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChCustCommandLine.html I find very good support in command line for conveying the 'capture stop conditions' and various methods of handling large number of output logs to 'capture output'. Thx for that info.
