An illegal character?
Or does it say something such as
tcpdump: unknown host 'c'
which says that it doesn't know about a host named "c", not that there's
an illegal character in the command line?

Is there a DNS entry, a WINS entry, or a hosts-file entry for it? If
not, the Windows "gethostbyname()" routine probably won't find it, and
tcpdump/windump uses "gethostbyname()".
