Re: Reading a TCPdump file

[sekure <sekure () gmail com>]

Mark,

Are you HOME_NET and EXTERNAL_NET variables defined correctly?

Also, i am not exactly sure if the tcpdump contains a complete
session, or just the alerts, but if it does NOT contain the entire
session, Snort won't even look at it, unless you remove the "-z" from
the commandline (which looks like you did), and remove the "flow"
keyword from the rules.
