Topic: Snort Acid - removing

[Steve]

I am trying to remove snort & acid from my system.  I tried 'rpm -e '.  On all of the rpm's, it says they are not installed, so I tried 'rpm -Uvh ' to reinstall the rpm (although I know its installed), then it says the rpm's are already installed!!  Any suggestions?  Should I use a different command?

Also, I read some of the recent posts regarding snort/acid.  Is it reporting anything for anyone?  I had it installed and ran port scans and nothing was reported.  I'm not using dial-up, so I don't think it is necessary to edit anything?

Thanks in advance!

rpm -qa |grep snort
rpm -e , without the .rpm extension.

rpm -qa |grep acid
rpm -e , without the .rpm extension.

Thanks Nathan!   I didn't realize you had to omit the .rpm after it is installed.
