SnortCenter can't control Snort

Hi, 

I'm not sure what mistakes I made but my SnortCenter isn't able
to connect to the Snort process.

I've installed the Sensor on the Machine running Snort, 
and the SnortCenter on another machine. SnortCenter connects
to the Sensor (the entry shows yellow/orange), but indicates that Snort
isn't running, even when it's running in the process list.
When I use "Start" on the Sensor Control the Sensor gives out

Current config file error:

-*> Snort! <*-

Uh, you need to tell me to do something...

: No such file or directory
USAGE: /usr/local/bin/snort [-options] 
Options:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

so that's where I'm stuck right now.
Maybe somebody can help me?

SnortCENTER: 1.0 RC1

Solaris 5.8 sun4u sparc
