Re: snort -T not terminating on old (6.2) FreeBSD system

[JJ Cummings <cummingsj () gmail com>]

Would really need to understand what the output of -T is and what the  
script is looking for as per output etc etc etc.. i.e. are you looking  
for a --== Initialization Complete ==-- then starting w/ -D after  
successful --== Initialization Complete ==-- in -T...
