            adding:
            portvar FILE_DATA_PORTS [$HTTP_PORTS,110,143]
            to the advanced config section does solve the problem

              Good call guys.  I just tried this and voila it worked!  Strange because I did add it manually to snort.conf and it was a no go.

              Fixed.

              Thanks guys!

                will there be a fix where you dont have to edit the .conf ?  …i DID have all my 'servers' defined in the ....uhhh 'define servers' ....the bam...snort hit a bad rail and bummed itself stupid.

                i dont mind editing the .conf ...but it would be nice for a person who doesnt really know what they are doing and just work...right? just imo  :-X

                      Gents,

                      Having an issue with the listed fix. When I add portvar FILE_DATA_PORTS [$HTTP_PORTS,110,143] to /usr/local/etc/snort/snort_51441_em0/snort.conf. When I save the file, and then immediately reopen it the new line is there. When I start snort I get the same error in the logs, and when I look at the conf again, the line is removed. I have uninstalled and re installed snort, but I get the same issue. Any ideas?

                        You have to put this config on gui, not in conf file.

                        adding:
                        portvar FILE_DATA_PORTS [$HTTP_PORTS,110,143]
                        to the advanced config section does solve the problem

                                      New issue seems to have come up.

                                      The fix above works….however, I no longer receive any alerts in the Alerts tab (yes alerts are enabled) and I'm not sure it's blocking offenders.

                                      If I use GRC.com's ShieldsUp! yes, it will detect that and block it.

                                      Now, FWIW, I recently installed and configured pfBlocker and am having it block a few countries that used to show up in my logs a lot.  Perhaps that's why I am seeing a lot less offenders being blocked?  I suppose that makes sense.  But, the fact that I no longer see Alerts is odd.

                                      Just curious of anyone who implemented the above fix noticed this?

                                      Thanks!
