I've noticed on recent versions of redhat some of the packet dumping software does not throw the nic in PROMISC mode. I haven't tested this with snort, but I have seen it with tcpdump(it's in the man pages).=20 Superuser has to put the nic in promisc mode before you can dump packtes on the "any interface". Not sure if this is a library or something tcpdump is doing itself, however the tcpdump man page says since later versions of the 2.2 kernel and newer so I would assume it is probably the libraries doing it for tcpdump. You may want to make double sure snort really has the nic in PROMISC mode. --rat On Mon, 2002-05-06 at 07:00, Bruno Gimenes Pereti wrote: >=20 > Hello, >=20 > I tried it on a redhat 7.1 running snort and it didn=B4t detected the > promiscue mode. >=20 > Bruno Pereti. >=20 >=20 > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Danish Usman" <danish5041@hotmail.com> > To: <security-discuss@linuxsecurity.com> > Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 4:00 AM > Subject: Re: chkrootkit >=20 >=20 > > > > Hi there, > > I have tried this on my redhat box on which i have installed > > rootkit.
