Package: snort-mysql
Version: 2.7.0-10
When I apt-get install snort-mysql the configuration fails and leaves it
partially installed. After I create the database (following the
documentation), and run "apt-get upgrade" to attempt re-configuration,
it fails (apparently) because there is no eth0. When I manually edit
/etc/snort/snort.debian.conf so that the network adapter is eth1, I get
the following output attempting to "apt-get upgrade" again:
:~# apt-get upgrade

After this, /etc/snort/snort.debian.conf has reverted to having the
network adapter set as eth0. I have a feeling this package works
correctly on a system with an eth0 interface.
