Topic: Snort + Acid - Intrution Detection

[int21h]

I've installed the latest version of Snort and Acid, following the Contrib how-to http://www.marari.net/downloads/snort/acid-howto.htm

However, i'm using a Dialup account, as far as I can see, snort will only log eth0 and eth1.

Does anyone know how to change the config, so it will log/scan ppp0 ?

[Tom Veitch]

edit the snortd in the rd.d/init and change the eth0 to ppp0 and it will work

Will the latest version of Snort run on esmith 5.1.2 and 5.5?

It states that I would need Red Hat 7.3, and from what i've read Esmith runs on 7.2?  

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

HI Tom.
Is that rd.d / init a typo?
