var HOME_NET any var EXTERNAL_NET $HOME_NETCommand line options will override setup variables in snort.conf.Or is the config file parsed (HOME_NET=any, EXTERNAL_NET=any) and then the command line (HOME_NET=192.168.1.34/32, EXTERNAL_NET=192.168.1.34/32) Reason why I ask this is, I released snort 1.8.6 as a Debian package recently and found that EXTERNAL_NET has $HOME_NET as value, and was wondering what the impact of redefining the HOME_NET variable during snort-startup would be on EXTERNAL_NET. I hope the above clarifies what I try to find out :)
My guess based on your comments is you probably want an equal sign in the var External_Net definition. Something like: var EXTERNAL_NET = $HOME_NET, or, var EXTERNAL_NET != $HOME_NET If I've understood what you're trying to accomplish, the Home_Net should describe the IP addresses that you are trying to protect (or observe), and the External_Net is everything else (eg, !=). ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Oh, it's good to be a geek. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
