Hi.

You are using a snort.conf from an old version (2.3) of Snort, use the one that came with the 2.8 source and you should get on fine. I guess that you installed an older version of snort from the apt repository.

You will want to remove the old versions and then use the snort.conf, and associated stuff from 2.8. You will find them under etc/ in the tarball.

Hi

Looks like there are some problems with your snort.conf

Mar 28 09:23:17 wilter-ubuntu snort[24673]: /etc/snort/ snort.conf(214) unknown dynamic preprocessor "frag2"

frag2 has been replaced with frag3, You shouldn't have it enabled on line 214 of your snort.conf

As for the other errors, post your snort.conf with the full output of a snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -T and ill take a look.
