Try Snort -v, let it run, and see if it quits.

The -T switch reveals no errors. 

Snort successfully loaded all rules and checked all rule chains.

Try running Snort with the -T switch.

 

snort -l d:\snort\logs -i4 -c d:\snort\snort -T

I had been running Snort on NT4, but decided to put it on a W2K box
(SP3). 
I'm using Snort 1.87 build 128 with MSSQL support, and WinPCap 2.3. 
I use snort -l d:\snort\logs -i4 -c d:\snort\snort.conf 
Snort starts with the usual happy messages, runs for about 30-60
seconds, and then I get my command prompt back with no error messages.

I would appreciate any suggestions.
