Start snort and tail the log. You should get some indications from that. Something like '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/snortd ; tail /var/log/messages -f' should work. You're gonna have to change the location of the syslog file on FreeBSD but I think you get the idea. -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net [mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net] On Behalf Of Daniel Jagodziñski Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 5:47 PM To: SNORT_USER_MAILING_LIST Subject: [Snort-users] Snort is exiting after start I am starting snort from shell script located in /usr/local/etc/rc.d with the starting line like that .../snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort.conf -u snortd -g snortd -i rl0 -D user and group snortd exist. Snort is configured to use PostgreSQL and the database is present. The scripts is executed but just a while after snort is extiting with information Promisc... mode disabled. What is that I am doing wrong. Earlier I have the same starting line placed in /etc/rc.local but following suggestions of FreeBSD users moved it into script. When started from rc.local the snort was working. I have tried however to start it from the shell with similar results. Even if executed as root won't start System: FreeBSD 5.1, PostgreSQL 7.4.1, Snort 2.1.1 Jan Pips ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
