I don't get it

hi,

we have been using snort-mysql 1.9 for quite a while and now updated to 2.0. (2.0.0-3.2.mf.1 debian packages) one sensor is in front of a linux firewall, a second one behind. Both interfaces are in promisc mode, snort is running with "-i any" (we changed from running 2 snort instances to "-i any" as well)

the problem is, that snort is hardly alerting anything. (other than portscans) although i see tons of entries in the firewall for tcp ports 135 and 445 and added the rules for lovesan and co. even a nessus test didn't show up at all.

i just don't get it. any help is very appreciated.

thx,
stefan.
