RE: Stopping Snort

["Kretzer, Jason R (Big Sandy)" <jason.kretzer () kctcs edu>]

Depends on what OS, you are on.  Also, in the case of linux, what set of
scripts are used to start/stop.  Just in case I guess though I will list
a couple of ways that I know of for linux.
 
For Debian, change to root and change directory to /etc/init.d and issue
a ./snort stop
For RedHat/Fedora, change to root and issue a service snort stop
 
For Windows, there should be an exe somewhere for stopping it, though I
have never used snort on windows.
 
Hope this helps a little.

        Is there a command to stop snort besides just killing the
process?
