By the way, by which program is the sid-msg.map
file
used?

Programs like Barnyard that do post-processing of
trafic dumped by snort.

I actually download updates for snort rules from
different URLs, so I have to generate the
sid-msg.map
file using a script... however, I don't know what
does
exactly this file serve to?

It can be used to filter alerts (see thresold.conf
file for some
examples). Very usefull to limit or trigger down
some verbose
preprocessors and decoders.

Regards,
