        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 

In all actuality, this just kills the process.  Although, admittedly, it
appears a little more graceful to the user.
         
        For RedHat/Fedora, change to root and issue a service snort stop

Same here.
         
        For Windows, there should be an exe somewhere for stopping it,
though I have never used snort on windows.
         
        Hope this helps a little.

So, to succintly, and literally, answer the OP's question....No.

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