Re: Forcing an interface into promis mode at bootup

Just add '/sbin/ifconfig eth0 promisc'  to your network script (after your card has been initalized).

I know this is more of a Linux question, but my application is on my Linux box running snort as a NIDS.  How do you 
configure an interface (eth0) to be in proisc mode during the execution of the network script at bootup.  I have set 
the eth0 to be a black interface and would like it to be in promisc mode on boot so that I don't have to shell in and 
type the command every time it reboots.  Thanks in advance.
