Re: config woes with 2.7.0.1 and frag3

Missing commas ...

preprocessor frag3_global: max_frags 65536, prealloc_frags 262144
preprocessor frag3_engine: policy first, detect_anomalies

I recently installed 2.7.0.1 and it complained about my frag3
configuration that had worked fine with 2.6. The really strange thing is
that it is the same as in the sample snort.conf!

Here is an excerpt from my conf file:

config disable_decode_alerts
config disable_tcpopt_experimental_alerts
config disable_tcpopt_alerts

preprocessor flow: stats_interval 0 hash 2

preprocessor frag3_global: max_frags 65536 prealloc_frags 262144
preprocessor frag3_engine: policy first detect_anomalies

preprocessor stream4: disable_evasion_alerts
preprocessor stream4_reassemble: zero_flushed_packets

and this generates the error:

Aug 13 09:21:41 monitor-dmzo snort: FATAL ERROR:
conf/bond0.snort.conf(34) => Missing argument to max_frags in config file.
Aug 13 09:22:33 monitor-dmzo su(pam_unix)[3677]: session closed for user
snort

Any ideas what is going on here?

Cheers, Russell
