Automating Setup

You can automate the Setup process using sosetup.conf.

Copy the example file to your home directory:
cp /usr/share/securityonion/sosetup.conf ~

Edit your new sosetup.conf using nano or your favorite text editor:
nano ~/sosetup.conf

Run Setup with the -f switch and the path to this file:
sudo sosetup -f ~/sosetup.conf
