Have you selected an interface in snort to listen for activity?
Also depending on your config, you need to be able to listen through all
traffic on the network, one way of doing this is by port mirroring.

  Dear all,


  i hope this mail finds you well, I installed snort  IPS , subscribed to
  the
  rules and applied them on  to my Oracle  Linux box, though this was done,
  i
  don't seem  to see any activity when i go to  monitor or check on the
  various rules, I wish to know if any one who configured the same could
  have had a similar experience? if so what did he do to rectify the
  problem?

  Looking forward to all your suggestions.


  Allan
