No, I am not trying to run all of the sigs.  I have a
long disabled list.  I only run some from bleeding and
snort community.  I get a Segmentation fault error
when not in daemon mode.  I only have a T1 so my
bandwidth usage is limited.  I am not running out of
memory when it stops.  Snort is currently setup with
lowmem config.  I thought of the same thing.  It was
setup as AC in 2.6.1.5 and it worked fine.  


Thanks again,


ZK

The better questions:



Are you trying to run ALL SIGNATURES (including
bleeding threats, and the Stormworm IP Signatures,
about 15,000 signatures)??



How much bandwidth is this firewall handling? (Mb/s)



Run Snort in non-daemon mode, and see the error you
get when it stops running.

We'll probably need some kind of debug output to
find out why it's dying
since it's not printing any error messages.

Are you running out of RAM on the box when Snort
dies?

The firewall is using Debian Etch 4.1.  It is a
Dell
PE 2950.  I have nothing in the logs.  Version
2.6.1.5
worked fine until I upgraded to latest version.

I just upgraded from 2.6.1.5 to 2.7.0.1 and
now
snort
keeps dying with no error messages.  I am
using
snortsam, flex_resp2, and react.  I have
lowered
the
memory config to lowmem.  The firewall has two
cpus
and 4GB of ram.  I start the daemaon and 2
minutes
later it stops suddenly.  Has anyone else
encounter
this problem?

TIA,

ZK
