RE: Snort Service - Win2k Adv Server

Try:

 

snort /SERVICE /INSTALL -c c:\snort\etc\snort.conf -l c:\snort\log -i1

net start snort

You can add more switches after you get it going.

c:\snort\etc\snort.conf

it says snort installed sucessfully. when i start the service by the command

net start snortsvc

it says an error
