Updating snort rules automatically
- by Matt Simmons
I've been working on getting my snort machine up and running, and working through Snort IDS and IPS Toolkit.
The authors suggest using Oinkmaster, but on that website, the last update was February of 2008. That seems sort of...odd. Maybe there haven't been any issues with oinkmaster in the past year and a half, but it made me wonder if there was another solution that I don't know about.
If you use snort, do you automatically update your rules, and if so, how?
