Problems with SNORT
Hi all
I have been using snort for months, but configurating the new release
2.1.1.1-1 (with Sage) gave the folowwing error in my /var/log/daemon file  :
FATAL ERROR unknown preprocessor " ]^\^H_decode"  
after lot of tests, I ended to uninstall all the packages (snort,
snort-common, snort-rules-default)  all 2.1.1.1-1 relaeses 
As /etc/snort.conf was  fairely old (Rel. 1.7) I removed the /etc/snort
directory ( apt-get remove let that untouched).. 
As the new installation asked for a  non existing snort.conf file, I had to
recover it from another computer,  ... and I went back to the initial
situation .. 
no known bug in
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=202824&archive=yes) for
this release ..
A woody station running snort 1.8.4beta-3.-1 seems OK. 
As anybody any idea ?
Regards,
