I have installed Snort in Windows 2008 with the line in snort.conf:

And not run that rules if I delete the rules the system runs perfect. what can be the cause of the error or what I need to add or remove to my configuration to be able to run that rules? Of course I'm not using the default port of SQL Server we changed. Thank you</dir></value></name></var></mode></type></var></mode> </dir></type></interface> -

And not run that rules if I delete the rules the system runs perfect. what can be the cause of the error or what I need to add or remove to my configuration to be able to run that rules? Of course I'm not using the default port of SQL Server we changed. Thank you </dir></value></name></var></mode></type></var></mode> </dir></type></interface>Well, this is a discussion forum for FreeBSD-based pfSense (no Windows around here.. ;)), but I think I see your problem.
You have $HTTP_PORTS defined in your snort.conf file (which is correct), but in the rule you posted you have $HTTP_PORT. They are NOT the same variable to Snort. You are missing the "S" in $HTTP_PORTS in your first three local rules.

Oh my god hehe what a fool is working now. Thank you because someone entered and did a sql inject.
Just to finalize imchanged the port of SQL no matter that ok and with this command:snort -d -A console -i2 -c c:\Snort\etc\snort.conf -l c:\Snort\log -K asciiIs supposed the system running and protecting droping sal injection attacks ok? or I need to add something more to the command line.
Thank you -

Just to finalize imchanged the port of SQL no matter that ok and with this command:snort -d -A console -i2 -c c:\Snort\etc\snort.conf -l c:\Snort\log -K asciiIs supposed the system running and protecting droping sal injection attacks ok? or I need to add something more to the command line.
Thank youThis is OK, but just be aware that logging in ASCII is not terribly efficient for Snort. At low traffic levels on a powerful box it is OK, but on very busy networks Snort might drop packets (that is, miss inspecting them) while it is trying to write a large ASCII log packet. Most folks let Snort log in the binary unified2 mode and then use a tool like Barnyard2 to read that binary log and then write to ASCII or a MySQL database.

Ok thank you for all just to understand more that rules I typed in the first topic what really do? becau I heard the drop is only for IPS mode and Windows I'm not sure it does. And the only "alerts" what do?Just found the attack then make a reset or something? Because we don't only need to detect and see we need a ban for the action. Look this topic:
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=52148.0
That guy did similar thing but is not clear if he ran like IPS or like the command line I gave you the snort and he say he ban the attacks for that my question I added also that 3 more alert rules of that guy but that alert rules are automatic ban the attacks? Or what it means with ban from that guy he made another thing to catch or just only the alerts.
Thank you for the help we are a school that someone made atack like I said you and your help are amazing because we don't want that happen again or at least minimize.
Thank you for help -

Thank you for helpOnly a few platforms support true inline mode with "drop" rules, and Windows is not one of those platforms. So Snort on Windows can alert you of a problem, but it can't block the traffic. Snort on pfSense can alert on and block offending traffic. Same thing for Snort on most Linux platforms. So if you want Snort to actually block offending traffic and not just alert on it, then you need to switch platforms…and since this is a pfSense forum, I highly recommend pfSense with the Snort package ;)

ok in case of use a linux server with snort installed with some ip for example lll.lll.lll.lll in other place in the world can we protect our windows server on another part of the world with ip www.www.www.www? If yes I guess that is just to define the IP tomprotect in ofense and that's all or is more complicated?

Thank youYou can only protect devices on networks that are "behind" the Snort installation. What I mean by "behind" is that traffic routed from the Internet (or any other network you consider potentially hostile) to the server you want to protect must come and go through the Snort machine. That's the only way Snort could block offending traffic.
I may not be understanding your question completely. I don't mean to insult, but from your posts I am guessing English is not your primary language. It is a bit difficult for me to completely understand what you are asking me with the translation. If you have servers located in two geographically diverse locations, the only way you could have Snort on one of them protect a Windows install on the other one is if they were both part of an interconnected VPN and the Snort machine is the gateway into and out of the VPN. Anything else and the answer is "no", you generally can't do what you are asking with geographically diverse networks.

Thank you that is the answer.
