If you have access to Visual Studio, you may want to download and compile the snort 1.9 source code (http://www.snort.org/devel.html). I've added support for running snort as a Windows service. Now at scheduled times (ie using WinAt) you can run commands like "net stop snortsvc" or "net start snortsvc". Install the service by running the command: snort /SERVICE /INSTALL any_of_your_regular_parameters Then you can issue the "net" commands (describe above), or alternately you can use the Services control panel.

Brian, Not sure if this will help, but I use a scheduling program called
JIT.
It does allow you to kill a proccess after a certain period of time. Originally this program was free, with the latest release there is a very reasonable fee. You can find it at. http://gibinsoft.net/hp/polyakoff/ Andrew Zielinski Brian Ertel <bsertel () amherst edu> To:

[Snort-users] Automating Snort on W2k
using WinAt
05/02/2002 03:28 PM This is a re-phrasing of a question that went unanswered. Using WinAt I want to automate the starting and stopping of snort. I use the snort -de -l c:\inetpub\wwwroot\logs -c snort.conf command to start snort. Usually I manually stop snort for ending the process in the Task Manager, however that will obviously not be a viable option in the automatic process. I am using WinAt and a .bat file to start snort at 12:00am every day with the above command. What command can I write in a .bat file in order to automatically stop snort before 12am everyday using WinAt and a .bat file?
