      @kilthro:

      So what exactly do i need to remove and I will give that a shot? Is this being discussed in another thread too?

      It's from this post:  http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,60994.msg330447.html#msg330447

      That version of an interim fix may still get tripped up with the SO rules update issue. That one is just endemic to Snort.  Snort is supposed to restart itself under those circumstances, though.

      I am working on a permanent fix based on what I currently think is happening.  Plan on revamping how the shell script works for these restarts (especially the stops).  More feedback from folks having the problem is always welcome!

          Bill,
          I am going to keep my replies going forward in the topic you linked so everything is together. As you can see in that post there I am having to redo the tests for you.
