RE: Win32 Snort as a service: Error 1067

["Michael Steele" <michaels () winsnort com>]

What error did it generate in the event log under application?

Make SURE MySQL is running before Snort is ran.

Use Snorts -T switch to test your configuration.

To get your full run line: From the command prompt CD to your snort/bin
folder and type:

Snort /SERVICE /SHOW

Note: You can cut and past the run line

> From the command prompt type"

Snort (paste ort type the run line) -T

What was the output, pay close attention to the error statements?

Cheers...

Subject: [Snort-users] Win32 Snort as a service: Error 1067

Hello list,
        I'm trying to set up Snort on a 2000 SP4 machine, and after I get
snort and mysql installed, and try to run snort as a service, I get an error
1067, unexpected termination. When I run it from the command prompt (with
the -v switch) it runs, but when I stop it, I get 
        "pcap_loop: read error: PacketReceivePacket failed" and then the
next line is the run time for packet processing.

        I've got 2k SP4 with snort 2.0.1 on WinpCap 3. 

Thanks!

Michael Bowman
