Re: Problem With Dynamic Library

Hello,

I'm the author of those Snort on Ubuntu guides on the
http://SublimeRobots.com blog.

You need to copy the dynamic preprocessor libraries from the snort Source (
*~/snort_src*) folder. if you're following my Ubuntu guide, that command is
probably something like:

*cd
~/snort_src/snort-2.9.9.0/src/dynamic-preprocessors/build/usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor/*
*sudo cp * /usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor/*

You probably need to clean out the*
/usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor/ *folder before you run the above
command.  (I can't remember if there was a change in these folder paths
between the instructions for the 2.9.8.x and 2.9.9.x versions of snort, so
you may need to tweak these instructions a bit).

After compiling snort on Ubuntu, the *ldconfig *command is required (or
snort will throw an error when you run it), that's probably what he is
referring to.

When I run the test "sudo snort -T -i enp1s0 -c

ERROR: The dynamic detection library "/usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicrules/file-executable.so"

this is the dynamic shared object rules... did you download new rules and
replace them, too??

isn't compatible with the current dynamic engine library
"/usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicengine/libsf_engine.so" version 3.0.


we used to always delete everything in the dynamicrules and
dynamicpreprocessor directories... if we were using the shared object
rules, those had to go, too... plus they had to be disabled until they had
been updated on the next scheduled rules update run...

And yes, I did the "sudo ldconfig" to update the shared libraries.


we've never done that... didn't ever need to...
