Hi,

Is there a way to run Snort in NIDS mode on large (>500MB) pcap dumps? When I try to run snort --dev --l (mylog) --r (myfile) --c /etc/snort.conf, I get, "Value too large for defined data type" and "ERROR: Error getting pcaps".

Is this because the file I'm reading is too large? If so, is there a workaround?

Have you tried tcpreplay to an interface that snort is listening on?
