If you post the error and your pulledpork configuration (minus the
commented lines) we might be able to help solve the problem.

The configuration file is pretty well documented.

Please remember to reply to the list.  And does snort have rx access to
/etc/snort?  Not just the files, but the folder.

also, what command are you using to start snort?  Is it a file that came
from the yum repo or did you compile from source and use one included?

The error message makes it sound like it's looking for a rule file called
/etc/snort/snort.conf, but i don't have a snort box in front of me and you
aren't trying to include snort.conf in your snort.conf (self inclusion) so
it's not that.  it could be the way you're calling snort which is why I'm
asking to see the command/script.

Can you paste the output of your snort.conf file..   Or at least the
includes section near the bottom for the rules?

If I copy the same script from /etc/rc.d/init.d/snortd to /root

then starting the snort as:

works well ( no problems )


Please help
