Re: File Size Limit SNORT in Logging Mode

[Erick Mechler <emechler () techometer net>]

:: What's the file size limit for the binary packet logging mode only (not IDS
:: mode).  SNORT I'm using is the 1.9.0 (Build 209) on a RH8smp box (256M ram/
:: 36G disk space) and snort stops running at exactly 2G.   

:: What are the constraints (OS, OS parameters, Memory,etc.) that might be
:: limiting me.

Check the archives around December/January for this.  There was a bit 
thread about this.  Basically, the problem (assuming your OS has big file 
support; any 1/2 modern version would have this) you need to make sure you 
have compiled libpcap with big file support.

Cheers - Erick
