Re: fatal error starting snort

[Rodrigo Goya <lucent () securenet com mx>]

Hi,

Don't know if it's the same rule, but I had the same message using a setup
(apparently) similar to yours.

Rule sid:1882 was the problem, it had a "byte_test:" in there with no
arguments, check your snort.eth0.conf on line 97 and see what rule is
causing the problem.

Cheers,
Rodrigo
