I see you did the wireshark group (better choice than wheel for sure). Personally I prefer Olivier's consolekit suggestion, to allow the
user logged into the physical console to use it. Much less of a management headache in most cases. The restricting it to a group should be
something an administrator can enforce with msec if they want it (and it could even be added to the default restrictions for the secure
level).
