Go up to the end of http_inspect_server. That error is specific to that preprocessor.

Check the line before it for a ‘\’ at the end which means continue this directive on the next line. It thinks you are 
trying to use ‘preprocessor’ as a configuration option for http.

Hi

I am new to Snort and trying to follow instructions to install and configure Snort on Windows.

I am getting the following error message when I am checking the install

ERROR: C:\Snort\etc\snort.config(330) =>invalid keyword 'preprocessor' for server configuration

On line 330 of snort.config there is the following

preprocessor rpc_decode: 111 32770 32771 32772 32773 32774 32775 32776 32777 32778 32779 no_alert_multiple_requests 
no_alert_large_fragments no_alert_incomplete

Any suggestions

Thanks

Alec Mason
