Wait to 2.8.5 it has multi-iface capabilities.

Here's a better idea:

Two interfaces on the snort box, one connected to one side of the
firewall and the other to the inside of the firewall. Then start two
instances of snort, one per interface.


so you are saying that multi-interface doesn't work very well?

Nope, I'm saying that given his scenario, two instances are probably better.
