Hi Anvin,
If you run snort on IDS mode, you can't drop network trafic.
Your subject contains "Facebook Block" but your snort rules contains *youtube*...
Warn: maybe Facebook are on https chanel...

I want to block the INTERNAL NETWORK from viewing anything on www.youtube.com website.
I've configured snort in the IDS mode.
and I execute it this way
[root@testpc ~]# snort -dQ -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -A console --daq dump
1) pass tcp any any -> any any (content:"www.youtube.com"; msg:"You are BLOCKED...."; sid:9991111; rev:1;)
2) drop tcp any any -> any any (content:"www.youtube.com"; msg:"You are BLOCKED...."; sid:9991112; rev:1;)
These rules are not blocking me from visiting the www.youtube.com website.
