Re: multiple port variable fun

For now you will have to deal with separate definitions for multiple
HTTP ports. However, port lists are planned for the 2.8 release which
will resolve this issue.


Cheers,

Do you mean put that in snort.conf?  Because when i tried that it just
thought you were reading the same rules files multiple times and failed as
the same pid's were being used multiple times. And the http_ports variable
was over-written 3 times.


Yeap, the SIDs will cause problems.  Barnyard and Oinkmaster wouldn't
play nice either.  One possible solution is to create separate rules
files for each port.  This looks ugly...

Really? Never had a problem with that. Just created a small test file
with a duplicate rule, but changed ports. Snort reads both rules without
a complaint.

What version of Snort are you using that causes that error? Or is the
error caused by some third party app?
