A third option might be to create a "snort-tracker" package that makes it easier to build an up-to-date snort binary, complete with up-to-date rules.

Does snort require significant patching to comply with our filesystem policies? noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
