Hi, Brand new user, brand new install of Snort. I am getting this when I try to start Snort. The directory c:\snort\log does, in fact, exist. I am the administrator on this machine and I have full read/write/create privileges on this directory. C:\Snort\bin>snort -L c:\snort\log -c c:\snort\etc\snort.conf -A console Running in IDS mode Log directory = log ERROR: [!] ERROR: Can not get write access to logging directory "log". (directory doesn't exist or permissions are set incorrectly or it is not a directory at all) Fatal Error, Quitting.. C:\Snort\bin> Windows XP, SP1 and Snort 213 Build 27 Regards, Mike
