Emanuele,
Thanks for the response. I didn't realize there was a pfring service
installed from the ntop repo package as well. I'm running into an issue
with pfring during the compilation of Bro IDS. Bro runs into a libpcap
compile issue even if I specify the path to: /usr/local/lib to use
libpcap.so.1 v1.7.4. If I remove the pf_ring package installed from the
ntop repos, the issue goes away completely. Any ideas there?
I also see that after I install pfring from the repos, I encounter these
errors in the pf_ring.service:
● pf_ring.service - LSB: Start/stop pf_ring
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/pf_ring; bad; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: active (exited) since Fri 2017-02-24 17:25:16 EST; 5 days ago
Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
Process: 2322 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/pf_ring start (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)
Feb 24 17:25:16 <machine_hostname> pf_ring[2320]: Starting PF_RING module:
cat: /etc/pf_ring/pf_ring.conf: No such file or directory
Feb 24 17:25:16 <machine_hostname> pf_ring[2320]: modprobe: FATAL: Module
pf_ring not found.
Feb 24 17:25:16 <machine_hostname> pf_ring[2320]: PF_RING not enabled:
please touch /etc/pf_ring/pf_ring.start
Feb 24 17:25:16 <machine_hostname> pf_ring[2320]: [ OK ]
I couldn't locate any pf_ring.start example file so I'm not sure what
parameters would go there.
Thanks for the assist!
