Hello
I am running SNF 7.2, and am haveing a problem with booting while snort and
prelude are enabled. The network script will hang trying to bring eth1
(external connection), and never get pass this point. If I boot in
interactive mode and don't start the network, then I can complete the boot.
At this point I can log in and start the network with the network script
and everything works. If I disable snort and prelude through the https
interface, booting goes just fine??? So trying to figure this out, I
tryed a few things. First I looked in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d and here are the
results of ls -l:
S10network -> ../init.d/network*
S11bastille-firewall -> ../init.d/bastille-firewall*
S30syslog -> ../init.d/syslog*
S40crond -> ../init.d/crond*
S40snortd -> ../init.d/snortd*
S55sshd -> ../init.d/sshd*
S75keytable -> ../init.d/keytable*
S80iptoip -> ../init.d/iptoip*
S80prelude -> ../init.d/prelude*
S85gpm -> ../init.d/gpm*
S85httpd-naat -> ../init.d/httpd-naat*
S95anacron -> ../init.d/anacron*
S99local -> ../rc.local*
So I removed snort and prelude entries by hand. Just deleted the files.
Now I have the following entries.
S10network -> ../init.d/network*
S11bastille-firewall -> ../init.d/bastille-firewall*
S30syslog -> ../init.d/syslog*
S40crond -> ../init.d/crond*
S55sshd -> ../init.d/sshd*
S75keytable -> ../init.d/keytable*
S80iptoip -> ../init.d/iptoip*
S85gpm -> ../init.d/gpm*
S85httpd-naat -> ../init.d/httpd-naat*
S95anacron -> ../init.d/anacron*
S99local -> ../rc.local*
And the system reboots just fine. So now I entered two commands at the end
of /etc/rc.d/rc.local file to start snort and prelude.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/snortd start
/etc/rc.d/init.d/prelude start
Now the system reboot just fine and snort and prelude are running. So I
then removed these entries from /etc/rc.d/rc.local, and replaced the
entries in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d so that all is back to the original setup. When
I reboot, it hang again trying to start eth1. Why is this. I don't
understand. Does the network script detect them and do something different
when they are there???
Also, I am using a fairly cheap nic that uses the tulip driver.
Any help would be greate
