Hi, I get this error when i try to run snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf ERROR: /etc/snort/../etc/snort/rules/local.rules(0) Unable to open rules file "/etc/snort/../etc/snort/rules/local.rules": No such file or directory. I checked the /etc/snort/rules directory and found local.rules is in there. Pls what am i doing wrong?
/etc/snort/../etc/snort/rules... hummm... the ".." only moves back up one directory... not two... so you are looking for /etc/etc/snort/rules... the real question is why there are '..' in there anyway... do not use relative directories... specifying the full directory prevents such headaches and hair loss :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
