Re: Snort IGNORES var HOME_NET

I've done this, and defined my HOME_NET to be
the following:

var HOME_NET [192.168.1.0/24,10.10.0.0/16]

And I now get:

May 8 10:06:21 hostname-1 snort: FATAL ERROR: ERROR /snort/rules/bad-traffic.rules (11) => Couldn't resolve hostname HOME_NET

Nope.  Just use:

        var EXTERNAL_NET !$HOME_NET

That defines it as "anything but what I've defined $HOME_NET as", which is
_usually_ what you want.

Cheers!
