If you continue to tell snort to use eth0 on the command line:

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/conf/snort.conf -i eth0 -D

it will continue to use eth0.  To use eth1:

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/conf/snort.conf -i eth1 -D

Subject:        [Snort-users] Sniffing stealth mode

Hi All,
        I've read the docs/FAQ and as much as I can find on the net but
still can't find the answer.

RH9
Apache
Acid
Mysql
Built with document: http://www.snort.org/docs/snort_acid_rh9.pdf

        I've got two nics. One with IP and one without. Eth0 has IP, Eth1 is
up in promisc with no IP using '#ifconfig eth1 up'. I can't seem to get
snort to listen to eth1 instead of eth0.

If I use 'var HOME_NET any' I get:

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/conf/snort.conf -i eth0 -D

I've tried these below but snort wont start:

var HOME_NET $eth1_ADDRESS
var HOME_NET $eth1_0.0.0.0
var HOME_NET $eth1

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Ed
