That could be a bug. On the other hand, "killed" implies that it may not have had the opportunity to perform a clean shutdown, perhaps leaving behind a PID file or some other cruft that must be cleaned up prior to the next start. I am not specifically familiar with snort, but the pattern is certainly common enough. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sánchez
