I have 2 NICs on this physical Linux pc (OpenSUSE 13.1) one is in promiscuous mode, now do you need the snort daemon running, could you show me the snort command that you use to get the logs. I have read so many different combos it can be very overwhelming, I am very new to Snort it's a whole ball of wax to me. Your advise is very appreciated, but I am a newbie to this, now the NIC that it should be listening on is the one in promiscuous mode right?
I thank you for any assistance you can provide, someone who has this working with Snort should create a tutorial on how to set it all up. What I mean by this is the installation and setting up of Snort, then setting it to work with Snort in SolarWinds Log and Event Manager.
