Question SNORT: What are the directory and variable paths?
Check the paths for dir and var in config daq in snort.conf. I searched SNORT folders and file explorer, but nothing close was found. Here’s a screenshot of my configuration file: https://gofile.io/d/vAWYnm OS: Windows 10
When you run the command "./snort -v", it returns an error saying "Can't set DAQ BPF Filter".
The reasons behind executing that command and the objectives you aim to achieve are unclear.
Documentation provides limited information regarding the specific "error."
Efforts made to address the failure have not been detailed here.
I attempted to test snort
It can be defined using "bpf_file: <filename>", but I’m unsure where to obtain this "<filename>". Perhaps I should create it
I searched online (for example: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/suppo...nt...re-00.html) and looked in "README.filters", thinking about writing those filters. But again, I’m not clear on how or where to apply them. The first link provides a very abstract description of the instruments I should use.
In Linux configuration files are typically located in a subdirectory named /etc/conf.
The query asks about the location of the config file and the installation method used for snort.
APT refers to a type of targeted attack method. You also set it up for Snort with WinPcap and npcap.
