Is drakxtools_http setting the ethx interface in promiscous mode and

AFAIK it doesn't. Why this question?
Hmm, sometimes I noticed 3 or 4 lines saying something like eth0: setting
promiscous mode when running /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart
I can't seem to reproduce this...
But I also sometimes get this:
[root@oden root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart
Shutting down interface eth0: [ OK ]
Setting network parameters:[ OK ]
Bringing up interface lo: [ OK ]
Bringing up interface eth0: task `ip' exit_signal 17 in reparent_to_init
Sorry for the noise.
I does that when using 'snort' snort puts the nic in promiscuos mode to
check for violations, it checks ALL the trafic. (I think) ;-)
