Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with snort installed on Windows
2000; in particular with the WinPcap library?
I have installed snort on the box according to a doc on
www.silcondefense.com/techsupport/winsnortsnarf_1.8.2.htm
When I test snort with E:\Snort>Snort -vi1
it works just fine - I see the output so I think therefore snort is doing
it's job.
When I try E:\Snort>Snort -c E:\Snort\snort.conf -I C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Logs
-i1
I get this error:
Initializing network interface \
ERROR: OpenCap<> FSM compilation failed:
illegal char 'c'
PCAP command: c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Logs -i1
Fatal Error, Quitting..
It is the c in "c:\Inet...." that it doesn't like. If I change directories
it gives a that directory as the error char.
Anyone seen this before and knopw what to do?
Thanks for any help,
Stig
