I am somewhat a novice with Snort on Linux. I have installed snort-2.0.2.tar.gz and libpcap-0.7.2.tar.gz on Linux 8.2.
Bzzzzzzt. No such animal as "Linux 8.2". I'll take a guess and say you really mean Red Hat.
I'm running a laptop with 3com pcmcia card. (model: 3CCFE575CT). I have win xp on the same machine and have no problems with snort (win version) I have followed all proper directions for installing snort on Linux and have received no errors during the process. However when I try to run snort i get the following error ============ Error: Failed to lookup for interface: no suitable device found. Please specify one with -i switch. Fatal Error, Quitting... ============ If anybody has any information or suggesting regarding the error I would appreciate some feedback. Thanks
Have you specified the interface? snort -dv -i eth0 And if your card is something other than eth0 replace it with that. Cheers! ----- Erek Adams "When things get weird, the weird turn pro." H.S.
