This is kinda off topic, but I used to have the link where Phil Woods has his modified libpcap.. Could you post it? Thanks, Sam
Hi, for me it is a simple way to continously follow how Snort is doing over a longer time period. You may want to use a tool like logsurfer to warn you if ie. big amount of packets is suddenly being lost. I personally like it. According the stats: This seems to be nothing that has anything to do with Snort. Try using the "new" "Phil Woods"-libpcap, where this situation got very much better. Also read the docs provided on Phil Wood's homepage. Since that version, my statistics are working good and stuff like 1250% TCP seem to be over now. Good work, I may add. :) Snort versions prior to 2.0 have had other difficulties with stats. At the moment however, everything is working really good for me with Snort 2.1.0 and libpcap-0.8.031204.

Personally I find it very handy when tweaking and debugging performance issues (in conjunction with http://people.su.se/~andreaso/perfmon-graph/). The output format is explained in src/preprocessors/perf-base.c and also in the manual I think. The drop stats on Linux seems broken though. /Andreas------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
