Easily done.

After making the below change, I tried to start snort back up and it would
not start.  After issuing a "/etc/init.d/snort start",  my startup script
tells me that it is up and running.
But then I issue a "ps -ef|grep snort" and there is no snort.
Any idears?

Here is a section of my conf:


var HOME_NET [192.168.1.0/24,192.168.5.0/24]

[...snip...]

That's fine.  It sounds like there is another error in your snort.conf.
I'll also bet that your startup script calls Snort with the '-D'
parameter.  To check for your real error, just start Snort as your script
does just without the '-D'.  Then you should see your true error.  Once
you have that, let us know and we'll see what we can do.

Cheers!
