Ok, it might be a typo, but change that "-b" to a "-c".  Also, since snort
picks the 'first' interface, you should be able to remove the "-i eth0".  If
it doesn't, you could also make that a config directive like:

        config interface:  eth0

While testing, I would suggest removing the "-D" from the command line.  That
way you're able to 'see' what errors are popping up.

Looks fine.

See if those changes help any.

Cheers!
