In the startup script look for a line that says "ifconfig eth# up" where eth# is the interface you are sniffing on (eth0, eth1). Ir the interface is not up before you try and start snort it will fail to start. vjl -----Original Message----- From: Ted Stringer [mailto:TedS () lancasterlawyers com] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 9:00 AM To: larosa, vjay; Spitzer, Nathan; snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: RE: [Snort-users] Snort loading at startup The interface starts at bootup, and I am not sure how to add it to the script. I am kinda new to this linux stuff. The script was the one that is on the documentation page in the "installing freeBSD, mysql, and Snort tutorial". Duh. that is a freeBSD start script, can anyone send me a linux start script?

How 'bout you help me out by sending the start-up script you used? -----Original Message----- From: Ted Stringer [mailto:TedS () lancasterlawyers com] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 4:17 PM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] Snort loading at startup Hi, I am having problems with snort loading at startup. The system is redhat 7.3 with snort 1.8.3 logging to a local mysql server. Snort starts just fine when called from a command line, but when I call it through the startup script that was on snort.org I get: Initializing Network Interface eth0 ERROR: OpenPcap() FSM compilation failed: parse error PCAP command start Fatal Error, Quitting.. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Ted _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes? SourceForge.net is looking for download mirrors. We supply the hardware.
