I have compiled snort version 2.4.3. I have a bridge set up as br0 whch is 
comprised of eth4 and eth5. br0 has no ip address associated with it. Snort is 
configured to log to a mysql database on 127.0.0.1:mysql (which is stunnel 
forwarding connections over eth0 to the mysql server)  

my iptables script just issues these commands:
iptables -F INPUT
iptables -F OUPUT
iptables -F FORWARD
iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT  -j QUEUE
iptables -A FORWARD -j QUEUE 
iptables -A OUPUT -j QUEUE


I call snort like this: snort -Q \  
-l /var/log/snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf 

and get this output:
Reading from iptables
***
*** interface device lookup found: eth0
***
Running in IDS mode

Initializing Network Interface eth0

     --== Initializing Snort ==--
[snip]

How can I get snort to stop looking for a device and to instead grab the 
traffic from the netlink queue?

Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer,
Ryan
