Seth Hall updated BIT-1407: --------------------------- Attachment: signature.asc We could alternately take the additional step of moving command line argument processing into Bro scripts. I don’t know how exactly we’d solve this particular problem, but it should be reasonably solvable that way. .Seth -- Seth Hall International Computer Science Institute (Bro) because everyone has a network http://www.bro.org/ > -f silently fails if base/frameworks/packet-filter isn't loaded > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BIT-1407 > URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1407 > Project: Bro Issue Tracker > Issue Type: Problem > Components: Bro > Reporter: Vern Paxson > Attachments: signature.asc > > > I know we've been through this before (though searching the tickets in Jira, > I couldn't find the thread). But to revisit: the "-f filter" option silently > does nothing if base/frameworks/packet-filter isn't loaded (so the scenario > here is using -b to suppress its automatic loading). This can lead to > seriously confusing behavior. It would be preferable if there's either an > error message indicating that the option won't be supported, or if it forced > loading of packet-filter. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.5-OD-05-041#65001) _______________________________________________ bro-dev mailing list bro-dev@bro.org http://mailman.icsi.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/bro-dev
