	2.2 and 3.0

>Description:

	From tcpdump man page:

	To   print   all   ICMP   packets   that   are   not  echo
	requests/replies (i.e., not ping packets):
                tcpdump 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0"
                       ^^^                           ^^^

>How-To-Repeat:

	man tcpdump
	Try to follow the example:

rafraf# tcpdump 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0"
Unmatched '.

	Make sure both are " ' " 

rafraf# tcpdump 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
tcpdump: listening on xl0
21:54:43.368414 192.168.1.100 > rafraf: icmp: time exceeded in-transit [tos 0xc0]
21:54:43.424888 192.168.1.100 > rafraf: icmp: time exceeded in-transit [tos 0xc0]

>Fix:

	Change
              tcpdump 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0"
	to
              tcpdump 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
