Can you send me that snortd file? I'm curious to see how it looks.

Do you recommend running snort manually like that instead of the
using the file in /etc/init.d/snortd?
Here is the output from ps aux |grep snort
root 9660 0.1 4.6 52472 48508 ? Ss 11:49 0:01 snort

I know this file is changing things becuase if I enter something
wrong I get an error back and snort does not start.

Find the line that says snort –D and just add that –i eth1 to it
at the beginning of the line. Here's mine:
/usr/local/bin/snort -i eth1 -D -N -o -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

To make it reflect snort -i eth1, I would just enter that
somewhere in /etc/init.d/snortd?
When I did that I got the following message after trying to
restart snort with /etc/init.d/snort restart

I believe the scipt being used is /etc/init.d/snortd, I did
restart the service with /etc/init.d/snortd restart.
I am running Red Hat Enterprise 4, I got the rpm from
rpmfind.net, the rpm is named
snort-2.3.3-1.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm
I installed the rpm with rpm -i snort-2.3.3-1.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm

Are you sure that is the script used to launch snort? Also, did
you bounce
the service after you made the change? A little more info like
distro and
install method would help too.

Subject: [Snort-users] Configure snort to use eth1
I have changed the config in /etc/init.d/snortd to eth1 but when
I run a "ps
aux grep snort" I still that eth0 is being used and if I grep eth
in /etc/snort/snort.conf there is no reference to use eth0
I want to configure snort to pull traffic from both eth0 and eth1
but mostly
eth1.
