That's what I have and I get the group null error. When I change them to their 
respective numbers I get an error about not able to look up the user from the 
id (1000).

Commented out and the log rule corrected snort runs. :) But it would still be 
nice to run snort as a user/group. :)

Also snort doesn't seem to pay attention to the config daemon param. I still 
have to use -D if I want it to load up that way. Why is that?

Thanks,
Robert
