      Hello,

      I'm using Snort on my PFsense Install (2.0.1) and it looks like it's not doing anything at all.
      I can see the snort process present with "top", but it don't consume any CPU even under high load, and don't detect anything after many hours (on a WAN connection). (I tried to portscan from the WAN but it don't detect it too)

      Here are the boot logs (in double, I don't know why):

          I used this to get mine working yesterday.

          http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/security/security-howto/31406-build-your-own-ids-firewall-with-pfsense?start=2

          Note; you'll want to create a new suppress file and add this to it.

          #(http_inspect) NO CONTENT-LENGTH OR TRANSFER-ENCODING IN HTTP RESPONSE
          suppress gen_id 120,sig_id 3

              That happened to me the first time as well.

              I unchecked the ET threats box then tried the updates again. It worked the second time with no ET.

              Make sure you have your oinkid in.

                  I cant for the world get it to use snort rules!

                  Even if I manually copy rules to the rules folder and reboot….

                  It ONLY uses emerging rules or NOTHING at all despite the rules beeing in the right folder.

                  I am going crazy about this shit....!!!!!!!!!!!

                    Reinstalled Snort and began again.

                    Now it could DL the rules and everything is fine.

                    Its very sensitive to things….. :D
