Hi,
Turning on Multicast works. I like this better than turning on promiscuous. I
need to figure out why this isn't turning on automagically at startup. If
multicast is not set in the kernel, will that cause this? Makes sense to me.

Hi,
Turning on Multicast works. I like this better than turning on promiscuous. I need
to figure out why this isn't turning on automagically at startup. If multicast is not

Hi,
How can I recognize such frames/packet

Hi,

Snort by default sets your interface card to promiscuous mode. You can verify
this by looking at 'ifconfig' output.
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:7D:79:01:25
inet addr:XX.XX.XX.XX Bcast:255.255.255.255 Mask:255.255.254.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING PROMISC MTU:1500

Hi Jeff.
My pcmcia netcard also don't work when i switch on my laptop.
When i type ifconfig it prints:
UP BROADCAST RUNNING
then I enable multicast (ifconfig eth0 multicast)
It works and ifconfig prints
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST

Jeff,
It can potentially slow your machine down somewhat, as now the kernel has
to handle each and every frame transmitted on the network eth0 is attached
to, rather than only the ones addressed to your machine and
broadcasts. Quite a lot of load if your system isn't addressed much on a
high-traff
I recently install snort on my laptop to check it out and now my pcmcia network
card will pass IP only when snort is running (daemon mode or not), or I have to
put my network card in promiscuous mode [#ifconfig eth0 -promisc].
I can't find any configuration that is obvious to me that would cause
