Snort Warning

[Xtern]

Hello,

I'm new here. Very cool forum. My problem with Snort is that it shows me this:

Warning:
New settings will not take effect until interface restart.

I did the setup like the guide (sticky above) told me, but I can't get rid of this warning message. It's there after restarting the whole machine, when I restart Snort, when I disable and enable the daemon and so on. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Best,
Xtern

That piece of text is there to remind you to restart Snort if you make any changes.

Fragged is right.  That's just a "reminder" sort of message to let you know that most changes to Snort interface parameters require a restart of Snort on the interface in order for the new settings to become active.
