     I am writing a program that makes use of Windows Sockets, and I thought I might use Wireshark to watch the 
traffic go back and forth across my network.  However, the Shark doesn't seem to capture the packets generated by my 
program. 
     I send data from the client computer to the server computer using a regular TCP connection onto port 2022 of the 
server.  I know the server is receiving the information, because it is able to print it on the screen.
     Wireshark seems to be capturing other data just fine, such as HTTP traffic on port 80, and VNC traffic (I use 
that to fiddle with my server so I don't have to walk back and forth between my computers).

Is it capturing other traffic *between the client and server in question*?
