We have two independently developed snortinline applications that we'd now like to run on the same interface. Is this possible via snort configuration, or do we have to merge the source code in the preprocessors directory and rebuild a single application? I would greatly appreciate any assistance. We tried starting up both snort binaries on the same interface but got an error (I believe it was resource busy). However, if we run two copies of the non-inline Snort applications on the same interface, there is no error. Thanks. -- Sanjai Narain Senior Research Scientist Telcordia Technologies |

This is a ip_queue limitation, not a snort-inline limitation. NFQUEUE which will be included in the 2.6.14 kernel will support multiple queue targets, hence you will be able to run multiple instances of snort-inline once we add support for it ;-).

Some time ago I reimplemented snort-inline on Linux so it uses TUN/TAP virtual net interfaces instead of IPQUEUE, so it should be possible to ru= n several instances of snort-inline. Although it can't REJECT yet (workaround on iptables level is possible) and it's almost untested (the development was stopped), it's usable - and is able to solve your problem= . Are you (or anybody else from snort-inline community) interested in the patch/code? VlK >> This is a ip_queue limitation, not a snort-inline limitation.

Nick: Thanks for pointing this out. We are running on Linux only, but your point is quite interesting.
