Hi Everybody

 I am trying to configure three instances of Snort. I have three files
snort_border, snort_lan, snort_dmz in /etc/init.d/. I get an error ":bad
interpreter: No such file or directory" if I try to start, stop or restart.
The instances woudn't start during the startup of the machine. The error in
/var/log/messages is the same for every instance.

For giggles, try editing /etc/rc.d/init.d/snort_[whatever] to read:

#!/bin/sh <------
# $Id: S99snort,v 1.1 2001/12/18 22:14:37 cazz Exp $
# /etc/init.d/snort : start or stop the SNORT Intrusion Database System
<snip.


rather than:

#!/bin/bash <------
# $Id: S99snort,v 1.1 2001/12/18 22:14:37 cazz Exp $
# /etc/init.d/snort : start or stop the SNORT Intrusion Database System
<snip>


The permissions on the thre files in /etc/init.d/ are -rwxr -xr -x owned by
root.

Could you please look into the file and help me.


- John
