Re: [Snort-inline-users] Snort-inline setup for a single computer (no-nat, no-bridge)

[Will M. <wil...@gm...>]

Try changing your -j ACCEPT rules to -j QUEUE the only caveot is that
snort_inline needs to see both sides of the conversation to do it's
job properly so you would need rules like the following.

iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -j QUEUE
iptables -A OUTPUT -i eth0 -j QUEUE

Even though you are using APF you should be able to get a list of the
current iptables rules for INPUT FORWARD and OUTPUT by doing the
following.

iptables -L

Will
