Default RE: [Snort-users] Win32 - multiple interfaces?

Running two Snort services may be as simple as editing the original registry
key for the first instance of Snort, and then run another instance of the
'/SERVICE /INSTALL' command to add it again, being careful not to overwrite
the first instance.

You could also use another service tool like firedeamon or the Microsoft
files you described below.

Note: BACKUP your registry so you can revert back if something gets blown
out.
