Dear list, I a new user to Snort and this is my first experience with. My issue is that; it seems the snort does not communicate correctly with iptables. I have a linux machine run SNORT 2.8.6 and connected to LAN with another linux machine. I am using the other machine to ping the snort server. every time I am running snort without iptables, the ping is working and once I am using the iptables then launch snort, the ping stopped and I received alert messages!!!! I can not understand why snort drop the packets?! I'll try to summarized my issue in points 1. I've built linux machine with CentOS 4.8 2. I've downloaded snort 2.8.6 from snort website 3. I've compiled the package after I installed successfully libipq and libnet 1.0.2a. I used the following commands ./configure --enable-inlinemakemake install 4. I've built a simple rule under /etc/snort/rules as the below and named "local.rule" alert icmp any any <> any any (msg: "ICMP DROPPED"; sid: 1000001;) 5. I loaded ip_queue model and verify it as below [root@xen1 rules]# modprobe ip_queue[root@xen1 rules]# lsmod | grep queueip_queue 44777 0 5. I launched iptables before I started snort as below and verify iptables -A OUTPUT -p icmp -j QUEUE [root@xen1 rules]# iptables -LChain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)target prot opt source destination QUEUE icmp -- anywhere anywhere 6. I've run snort as below [root@xen1 rules]# snort -k none -c /etc/snort/snort.conf.wael -l /var/log/snort/wael -Q -i eth1 Enabling inline operationRunning in IDS mode --== Initializing Snort ==--Initializing Output Plugins!Initializing Preprocessors!Initializing Plug-ins!Parsing Rules file "/etc/snort/snort.conf.wael"PortVar 'HTTP_PORTS' defined : [ 80 2301 3128 7777 7779 8000 8008 8028 8080 8180 8888 9999 ]PortVar 'SHELLCODE_PORTS' defined : [ 0:79 81:65535 ]PortVar 'ORACLE_PORTS' defined : [ 1521 ]... --== Initialization Complete ==-- ,,_ -*> Snort! <*- o" )~ Version 2.8.6.1 (Build 39) '''' By Martin Roesch & The Snort Team: http://www.snort.org/snort/snort-team Copyright (C) 1998-2010 Sourcefire, Inc., et al.
