Hello Mr. Developer
please add a verbose or debug output of rules which are not compatible or not working with snort , as an clear error log
because pfsense 2.0.1 i386 nanobsd vga + snort 2.9.2.3 pkg v. 2.5.1 and if activated from the categories/rules "snort_attack-responses.rules" snort wont start and quit with a not showing in that direction, error message.you got the error message as in the thread above
pgrep: Pidfile `/var/run/snort_pppoe139459.pid' is empty
i have activated all categories/Rules without,(not activated), the "snort_attack-responses.rules" rules and now snort works so far …
and btw "Enable Sensitive Data" under preprocessor is hard tobac :) :)
thanks
