Snort 2.6.0.2 (Build 85) - pfault


From: "Chris U" <chris.uyehara () gmail com>

Hi Snort Users,

I'm in need of some help... I am using FreeBSD 5.5 [Generic Kernel]. I
installed Snort via ports. When I run snort with the following command
line: "snort -i sis0 -v -c snort.conf -l ./logs" Snort trys to
startup... what really happens... snort begins to consume RAM, once
RAM has been fully consumed it consumes SWAP. Once SWAP is full, Snort
will die and pfault - or so says top. I have included a snippet of
output from top and snort. A nicely printed version is available at
http://tinyurl.com/yxdekg

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Mahalo,
Chris
