Hey!

Snort up and running again.

Running pfsense 1.2.2

ReInstalled snort package, downloaded the rules.
Had to save the rules before I could start snort, otherwise it said unable to load the rules.

Thanks for all the hard work!

James,

Please check your pm.

Also if you need hardware for development I have no problem getting you an Alix Board… Unless you really need a Mini-ITX than I can look in to the Mini-ITX form factor but I would prefer donating a Brand new Alix board to you. If interested please PM.
Somebody else can pitch in the rest of the hardware??

Take Care!

[jamesdean]

I have scripts that maonitor the nytimes, digg and twitter for news i like.
This just came up.

This is what Im talking about.

[serialdie]

jamesdean,

HAHAHAHA Nice!!!
Any info on the new update?
I am waiting on the PM so I can send you the board as promise.

Thank You!

[serialdie]

James,

Is
snort-2.8.4.1 the latest pkg you build?

Thats the pkg I am getting when I go under System: Package Manager: Install Package: Reinstall Package

[serialdie]

Ok thanks…

Right now I am not able to start Snort at all after the update... Since the update is broken it does not want to start....

By the way enjoy your new board. Ailx Boards are awesome and they get the job done. Hopefully it fits well for your snort coding.

[serialdie]

As non subscriber I get:

The downloaded file does not match the md5 file…

Error md5 Mismatch...

[serialdie]
