Run Snort -D upon start up

["McKeeman, Samuel" <smckeeman () ingdirect com>]

Hello,

            I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to start snort
when the computer starts and have it run in daemon mode.  Here is the
situation, I have sensors with dual NICs and we have a pre configured
package, those machines work fine, but I have built a test sensor with a
single NIC and I want it to run upon start up.  Snort already starts
upon boot but does not log to the database until I go to the command
line and type snort -D  I have changed the Interface to reflect the sing
NIC in /etc/sysconfig/snort, is there another file that needs to be
changed? I am running it on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, any help would be
appreciated.
