Is there any setting I can change to be able to open the file and

hours ?
Try to use the "use multiple files" option You should limit the files
to 50 or 100 megs. That should do the trick.
If you want to do this for a really long period you should consider
using tshark to write the files.

Yes, that is I decided to to know. 10 files with 50MB each.
Other question: What do I need to do on the Macintosh to be able to
see the man page ?

Uhh... I am running WireShark :-)
So the OS is seeing dumpcap, but nut the man pages.
Thanks,
