hello, Yesterday I wrote because I had a problem with 'unicode'. I found out that I installed the wrong version of snortrules. Now I installed snort-1.8.7.tar.gz and snortrules.tar.gz following the manual Snort, MySQL, Redhat 7.2. I tried the snort -T command again and got a new failure message: [root@localhost inprog]# snort -T Log directory = /var/log/snort Initializing Network Interface eth0 using config file /root/.snortrc Initializing Preprocessors! Initializing Plug-ins! Initializating Output Plugins! Parsing Rules file /root/.snortrc +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Initializing rule chains... ERROR: Unable to open rules file: /root/.snortrc or /root//root/.snortrc Fatal Error, Quitting.. I didn't found the .snortrc file on the redhat mashine. Why snort wants to use the .snortrc file to inizialise and not the snort.conf file? What can I do now to run snort? best regards martina podesser FLEXTRONICS World Trade Center A-1300 Vienna Austria Martina.Podesser () at flextronics com www.flextronics.com FLEXTRONICS World Trade Center A-1300 Vienna Austria Martina.Podesser () at flextronics com www.flextronics.com ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
