Try running snort from the command line to display packets (like
tcpdump), make sure to sniff from the same interface you are using in
snort.conf, make sure you see bidirectional traffic.
Also, make sure you uncomment the rule catagories you want to use, I
think its near the bottom of snort.conf, I believe there is an icmp
rule set that is noisy.

Hello gentlemen,

I would like to ask if someone could post a snort.conf example for a sensor
that monitors a Microsoft Windows environment.. i think is something wrong
with my sensors.. i donĀ“t know if it is because i have 2 or more instances
of snort running or maybe some misconfiguration..

i would be very thankfull for some help
