Hi The network Im monitoring is quite big (actually its huge). Every time works fine, until more than 32000 alerts (different IPs) aregenerated. When this happens, snort just stop probably because of an operating system restriction. This happens, in my networks, about every 20-30 minutes, and the reported error is about the impossibility of creating more directories within the snort logging directories. Of course after the directory is cleaned (restore to zero contents) everything runs fine for a while until 32000 different IP alerts aregenerated again. Could you help me, I mean any clue about now to work around the problem? Any one with the same problem to resolve? Is it a common compliant? Mave you plans to overcome this limitation? Thank you!
