SNORT

[Mel Chandler PMI <MChandler () pmi delta org>]

I'm new to Linux and SNORT and was wondering if I could get some tips
and/or help.  I have installed SNORT v1.8 rpm on Red Hat 7.1, when it
complained about missing a file, which I believe was the rules file, I
just supplied it with a blank file.  I'm not sure if there are some sort
of rules I need to download or if it updates them itself.  I've been
seeing a lot of activity (80-90% ARP Broadcasts), but so far SNORT reports
no activity.  Is there a way to test it and ensure it is working ok.
Also, is there some where I show get updated rules from?  I kept clicking
on links on the website for rules, but came to the download page and
couldn't find anything.  Any help would be great.
