Hello,
Am running packetfence on CentOS and alot of snort info gets logged to /var/log/messages am not sure if this is just a Debian thing that the messages log are clean. One other test we could do is eliminate your switch and just plug the LAN cable from the server directly into your laptop.
Start your torrent and see if you see anything in the violation log.
Lets also cross check  /etc/init.d/packetfence status

Alex,



After issuing the /etc/init.d/snort status, i receive the following.....
/root@packetfence:~# /etc/init.d/snort status/
/Status of snort daemon(s):  eth1  OK./
/root@packetfence:~#/

So it seems that snort is running. Also, below is the output to /var/log/messages and /usr/local/pf/logs/violation.log.

I just received my first violation this am about the NAT Routers so it looks like some violations are working properly but still nothing when I try to run bittorrents. Also, as you can see, it doesn't look like anything about snort is showing up inside /var/log/messages

    Hello,
    Have you looked at /var/log/messages and
    /usr/local/pf/logs/violation.log?
    Snort will normally log information there if it sees something.
    You could start your torrent app and see is anything appears in
    /var/log/messages or /usr/local/pf/logs/violation.log
I know you mentioned that snort is running but can you run /etc/init.d/snortd status ...just to be sure.

        Hi Fabrice,



        Thank you for getting back to me. To answer your question,
        yes, I have set
        detection=enabled as well as detection_engine=snort. Snort
        and pfdetect are
        running. As a matter of fact, all services are running with
        the exception
        of radius(which is fine since I'm not using it at the moment
        anyway). If I
        start downloading a Ubuntu torrent file on my guest network,
        my P2P traffic
        is not being trapped by packetfence. I've tried everything I
        can think of
        with no success. Any help or suggestions would be greatly
        appreciated.
        Thank you again



        Joe
