Can you send in the following. The output from "pcre-config --version" What version of snort your running Did you compile snort from source? What OS are you on. The sid and rev of the rule on line 661,664,701 Did you compile pcre from source? We've had a couple emails on this and it looks like some platforms have a really old / broken libpcre on them that doesn't support named captures. Something you can try is downloading the source packages for pcre from www.pcre.org and building and installing them. Then rebuilding snort I've tested 6.5,6.6,7.0 and they all work when built from source. Cheers, -matt Zultan wrote:
