Re: bash script not working properly

I suspect that the wait has something to do with it, is the idea to
wait for the tshark to complete?

I would use a sleep 5 before calling movit.sh. speaking of which, why
now put the mv commands at the end of the ts.sh? why bother calling a
separate script at all?

Finally, you should be using the -b option to tshark to put it in
multiple output mode to collect pcaps over time something like -b
duration:60
