hi
I just installed snort_2.9.8.0 on my 64bit windows 2008 r2 server.Before that I already installed .Net framework3.5 and WinPcap_4_1_3 on the same server.
However,when I start the snort programme using " d:\winids\snort\bin\snort –W ",the system reflect with an error as the information below:
C:\Users\Operator>d:\winids\snort\bin\snort –W
Running in packet dump mode

Snort BPF option: –W
pcap DAQ configured to passive.
The DAQ version does not support reload.

E}".
ERROR: Can't set DAQ BPF filter to '–W' (@P)!
