Hello Snort-users,



I tried installing snort-2.9.8.0 on ubuntu 15.10 that I am running on
Oracle VirtualBox. After the installation I tried running



sudo snort -T -i eth0 -c /etc/snort/snort.conf



to check the configuration.

But I got an error saying



Error: /etc/snort/snort.conf(291) => Invalid Stream TCP policy option

Fatal Error, Quitting..



Can anyone please help.



Thanks,

Pri
