RE: Snort 1.8.5 on Win32 problem

["Jeff Dell" <jdell () activeworx com>]

Add -l <log directory>

Example:

Create a log directory such as c:\log

Then use the line:
Snort -A full -c snort.conf -l c:\log

Ok at this point I'll just forget about IdCenter. I've installed 2.0 and
can
run "snort -dv" fine,
But not when I run " snort -A full -c snort.conf" . I get the following
error:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C:\Snort\bin>snort -A full -c snort.conf
Log directory = log

Initializing Network Interface \

        --== Initializing Snort ==--
Initializing Output Plugins!

[!] ERROR: Can not get write access to logging directory "log".
(directory doesn't exist or permissions are set incorrectly
or it is not a directory at all)

Fatal Error, Quitting.."
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There is a log directory and I have full permission (admin). What could
be
the problem?

Snort 1.8.5 come on, really, your joking? If not you might want to do a
search or check the net for current versions.

I installed it on my W2K machine, ran Idcenter, but it can't find the
alerts.ids. 
When I click on Start Snort, it keeps asking me to "Generate a script
first". 
What's the problem?
