Re: snort crash using some rules

I am running all these rulesets and they all work for me.

What do you mean crash? What is the error you are getting in your / var/log/messages file?

Hello!

I'm newbie using snort. I installed last version and adjusted snort.conf for
using more rules. I found that some rules originated a snort crash.

Rules with problems are:

# include $RULE_PATH/backdoor.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/chat.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/p2p.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/spyware-put.rules

# include $RULE_PATH/community/community-bot.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/community/community-misc.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/community/community-sip.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/community/community-virus.rules
# include $RULE_PATH/community/community-web-misc.rules

snort-2.6.1.3 running on a FreeBSD 6.2 machine

Is it normal? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Josep Pujadas
