Hi, attempting to setup a snort-inline box.  What I want to do is be able
to filter traffic with the box just having traffic pass thru 2 nics on a
bridge.  But when I setup the nic's in bridge mode, and do the

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j QUEUE


The INPUT chain is for packets going TO the box. For your bridge, packets
are going through the box. Put your QUEUE rule on the FORWARD chain.


then run snort, it dont catch anything.  I have tried enabling the porn
rules, and search for items in the content and it throws up no alerts, nor
drop anything (depending on rules used).  Can I not have the nics in
bridge?  How would i pass traffic thru the box seamlessly without being
bridged?
