Re: [Snort-users] snort won't start on boot

it could be that you don't command 'pidof' is not installed. Or it isn't in your path. Try the following

export PATH=$PATH:/sbin (put this in the script if you want).

or...

[...snip...]

         if [ "`/sbin/pidof $SNORT_PATH/snort`" ]; then

In all of my systems pidof command is located within /sbin it could be different on your system, change it respectively.

Do you need help?
