stop/start IPS

I want to stop/start the IPS with the command:
/var/mdw/scripts/snort stopp
/var/mdw/scripts/snort start
but the IPS ist'n affected (turned not to red in GUI). 
What is the snort process and what ist the right command to restart the IPS?

  • Hi,

    I'm running 9.05...

    The 'stop' command reports 'failed', but after a few seconds, the snort process does stop running (according to 'top', 'ps', and /var/mdw/scripts/snort status )

    However, I also lose my internet connection. [:(]

    WebAdmin (including the dashboard and the IPS settings) shows the IPS is active, which is not correct.

    Is there some reason you don't want to use WebAdmin to stop it?
