snort dies

["Martin F. Krafft" <madduck@madduck.net>]

hey all,
i looked in the debian bug system, and aside it being mentioned, i
have not found an answer. /etc/cron.daily/5snort seems to kill snort
when configured in start-at-boot mode. however, if i run the cron
script manually, it restarts just fine. but after a day, snort will
silently die on the system, which is definitely not what i want...
it seems to do fine in dialup mode.

any clues or fixes? this is on potato btw.
