Summary: 2.0.0-bug: config daemon

Initial Comment:
In my snort.conf I have specified:

config daemon

When I run 'snort -c /usr/sentor/etc/snort.conf -l /usr/sentor/log' it runs in the foreground, ignoring the "config daemon" directive in snort.conf. I have to execute 'snort -c /usr/sentor/etc/snort.conf -l /usr/sentor/log -D' in order to daemonize the process.

When "config daemon" is specifyed in snort.conf you loose the information about the number of rules and chains, and the rule application order (in test-mode) as well as all the statistics when snort is exiting. These stats & info is just not logged. Everything else is logged as usual, with the only difference that it's logged by syslogd and not on stdout.
