  ok, I am just having a heck of a time with snort 1.8
  I start snort and it dies with no error....this is all I get
in my logs. I am using MAndrake 8.0 with Kernel 2.4.3
I am starting snort like this.

/usr/sbin/snort -u snort -g snort -s -d -D  -i eth0 -l /var/log/snort -c 
/etc/snort/snort.conf

user snort and group snort own all logging directorys. I am getting this
ready to upgrade snort at work but I can't do that til I can make it work
and I am lost as to what the problem is.
