Hello , I tried to install Snort on Win2000 Professional. But I don't think the docoment of "Snort's Place in a Windows 2000 Environment" is much helpful. After reading it, I don't know how to start snort service. Then I followed the "Snort Installation Manual--Snort, MySQL, ACID, & Apache" from SILICON DEFENSE. I configed the snort.conf according to instructioin. When I tried to start snort service, the following error occured. C:\Applications\Snort\bin>net start snort The Snort service is starting. The Snort service could not be started. A system error has occurred. System error 1067 has occurred. The process terminated unexpectedly. There are only two things I am not sure: 1. var HOME_NET any I only wanted to monitor my own host. Since my IP address is assigned dynamically, I changed it to: var HOME_NET $(interfacename}_ADDRESS) (notes: I obtain the interfacename from the command "snort -W") 2. snort /SERVICE /INSTALL -c c:\applications\snort\etc\snort.conf -l c:\applications\snort\log –i1 x is noted to be the number of the NIC for Snort to sniff on. But I don't know what's the meaning of NIC. Is there anybody who can give me kind advice?
