RE: Automating Snort on W2k using WinAt

["Brown, Bobby (US - Hermitage)" <bobbrown () deloitte com>]

I installed snort as a service. Then I recycle snort as needed on schedule
with the command
 
net stop "snort service name"  and then followed by
net start "snort service name"

Brian, 
     Not sure if this will help, but I use a scheduling program called JIT. 
It does allow you to kill a proccess after a certain period of time. 
Originally this program was free, with the latest release there is a very 
reasonable fee. You can find it at.

This is a re-phrasing of a question that went unanswered. 
Using WinAt I want to automate the starting and stopping 
of snort.  I use the snort -de -l c:\inetpub\wwwroot\logs -c snort.conf 
command to start snort.  Usually I manually 
stop snort for ending the process in the 
Task Manager, however that will obviously 
not be a viable option in the automatic process. 
I am using WinAt and a .bat file to start snort at 12:00am 
every day with the above command.  What command can 
I write in a .bat file in order to automatically stop snort before 
12am everyday using WinAt and a .bat file? 


Thank you, 

Brian
