I am using snort to do multiple keyword search on a tcpdump file. The output I need is all the sessions containing those keywords. Thecomplete session should be stored in case the keyword is found. I specified session: binary in the conf file, and also tried enabling the stream4 preprocessor. However, I am facing two problems.
[...snip...] Simply, Snort can't do that. You'll need to use something like ethereal's 'follow stream' feature. Stream4 needs to read packets off of the wire to function correctly. It can't do that from a pcap file. Cheers! ----- Erek Adams "When things get weird, the weird turn pro." H.S.
