As of right now i have snort working with the command switch -i 2


Snort complains when i add the 2 to the command inside the snort.conf file.

How did you do this? Be exact.

What do is use instead?

AFAIK You can't specify an interface to listen on in snort.conf, on any
platform. Period. You must specify this on the command line. It's the only way.



In general most of the command line options are only commandline options, for
example the -h "home net" command line option is NOT the same as "var HOME_NET"
in your snort.conf. They work very differently, although both commonly have the
same value.
