Thanks for reporting this. I've opened a bug. Russ On Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 10:33 AM, <elof () sentor se> wrote:
This old bug from v2.0.x still exists. :-) If you start snort as root and then change uid and gid, you'll get this error when 'snort -D' is shutting down: "Could not remove pid file /var/run//snort_eth0.pid: Permission denied" If you also chroot your environment, the error message read: "Could not remove pid file /var/run//snort_eth0.pid: No such file" In both cases, the old file(s) remain in the filesystem after the process has died. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Snort-devel mailing list Snort-devel () lists sourceforge net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-devel
