| Subject: | [Snort-users] Wrong setup? |

| Date: | Fri, 16 Sep 2005 13:40:04 +0200 |
I have just installed snort on my debian (sid) box. During the installation I entered "any" as HOME_NET. But when I perform a portscan from another machine, nothing is written to the logs (/var/log/snort/*). And that's worrying me. 1) How can I test that the setup really do work? 2) Why are there two config files, snort.conf and snort.debian.conf? Booth seems to define HOME_NET but only snort.debian.conf defines the mail recipient. In order to change HOME_NET, will I have to modify both config files then?
