Hi.

I am installing Snort on Red Hat 9.0. During the install I was able to setup and compile Snort 2.1.1. I am currently testing my config file, and snort shows that there is some error - "Invalid file name for IIS Unicode Map file." Anyone has some idea what could it be ?

I didn`t change anything in snort.conf except RULE_PATCH (./etc/snort/rules), output database and HOME_NET and DNS_SERVERS.

Rules are fresh - downloaded from www.snort.org.

# snort -T -c ./etc/snort/snort.conf
