  Hi Leonardo,

This is not fully right. With proper patching Snort can read from multiple interfaces within the same instance. This is BTW, what we have done in redBorder project

    i have the snort in the border of a network, and how this topic
    shows, it has two interface. i have put the HOME_NET equal to the
    ip of the both interfaces.

    the think is: in one of them i can detect attacks, but in the
    other i cant.

    when i start to test, i was using just one (the iterface that is
    detecting).

    but i need particular that the other detect too. so, what could be
    wrong?

    my snort.conf is working fine, and i he is starting on boot
    sniffing both interface.

    This might be a problem with pcap?

    I believe Snort can only listen on one interface at a time, so you
    may want to run two separate instances of snort.

    James
