I currently have Snort 1.7 installed on my BSD machine which is a gateway machine for my internal network...When i start snort by doing: #/usr/local/bin/snort -d -h 192.168.0.0/24 -l /var/log/snort.log -c /usr/local/etc/snort.conf & or by starting it from /etc/rc.conf at boot time...it runs ..as i can see the process running with "ps -aux" BUT it doesnt seem to do anything ..ive tested it by scanning the BSD box from another machine out on the internet (from my work) and i see nothing from snort ...no mail ...no syslog ..no warnings of port scans...Nothing... I have followed the README & INSTALL files ..(which are the same howto's found on snorts website) and they are pretty vague... is there a walk thru or an example that i can follow somewhere ...or can someone just give a clue ?? any help is GREATLY appreciated thanx B
