Re: not load snort rules when I use -D option

I solved the problem :-D

The problem was I started snort as follow:

/usr/sbin/snort -m 027 -d -D -l /var/log/snort -S HOME_NET=[0.0.0.0] -u
root -g root -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -i br0

and I had to put 0.0.0.0/0  :-D (stupid boy)

It doesn't tell me in the syslog, when I start snort, that snort has
loaded the rules either, but the rules works!!! That was the confusion. 

Now if I scan the ports, snort will log for the rules and for the
preprocessors.

Thanks for your help


Pablo

from the "ps -ef" list

Subject: [Snort-users] not load snort rules when I use -D option


I have a problem when I start snort. I use:

/usr/sbin/snort -m 027 -d -D -l /var/log/snort -u root -g root
-c /etc/snort/snort.conf -i br0

and snort doesn load the rules.

If I start snort with out the -D option it loads the rules perfectly.

What is the problem???

I can start snort using daemon tools but I would like to use it by this
form.

Thanks for the help


Pablo
