Re: Can't get Identify open data channels to YES

Essentially the problem is that the message is wrong when Snort starts.  It should say “Ignore Open Data Channels” 
instead of “Identify Open Data Channels”

But look at the last line you pasted in your config there.

Hi Everyone,
 
I am trying to get the ftp data to be checked completely.
When running snort it tells me:
 
    FTP CONFIG:
      FTP Server: default
        Ports (PAF): 21 2100 3535 
        Check for Telnet Cmds: YES alert: YES
        Ignore Telnet Cmd Operations: YES alert: YES
        Identify open data channels: NO

How can i get Identify open data channels to YES?
Here the part of my snort.conf that matters:
 
preprocessor ftp_telnet: global inspection_type stateful encrypted_traffic no check_encrypted
preprocessor ftp_telnet_protocol: telnet \
    ayt_attack_thresh 20 \
    normalize ports { 23 } \
    detect_anomalies
preprocessor ftp_telnet_protocol: ftp server default \
    def_max_param_len 100 \
    ports { 21 2100 3535 } \
    telnet_cmds yes \
    ignore_telnet_erase_cmds yes \
    ignore_data_chan no \

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
 
Reinoud.
