Re: cannot resolve host error

["Rahul" <shadhanker () gmx net>]

Hello Del,

Sounds like the "$" symbol is missing near "HOME_NET" in the
bad-traffic.rules file in line number 12 as per your error.

As it is variable, we have to use with $.
Check whether is should be as "$HOME_NET".

HTH.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
Installed 2.1.0 , and snort works without rules.
When using supplied snort.conf rule files containing $HOME_NET give this
error. What am I doing wrong?

ERROR: ERROR /etc/snort/bad-traffic.rules(12): Couldn't resolve hostname
HOME_NET
Fatal Error, Quitting..

Thanks,
Del
