Hi Jimmy,

 

I am going to do the same thing as you did---making the transition from 2.8.5.3 to 2.8.6.1.

 

 What's the best way to do this transition?

 How did you make the transition? 

 

Thanks

 

Regards

 

John

Subject: [Snort-users] What's the difference between the shipped snort.conf's?

I'm finally making the transition from 2.8.5.3 to 2.8.6.1 and am
re-vamping my snort.conf but I'm seeing some differences between the
snort.conf that ships with 2.8.6.1 and what shipped with the latest
VRT release (on the 22nd). I'd used the one included in the ruleset
but it doesn't pass a simple test (compiled with
--enable-decoder-preprocessor-rules --enable-targetbased
--disable-corefile --enable-zip --enable-sourcefire --enable-ipv6):

...
Stream5 UDP Policy config:
Timeout: 180 seconds
ERROR: snort.conf(192) => Invalid keyword 'compress_depth' for
'global' configuration.
Fatal Error, Quitting..

The snort.conf that is included with 2.8.6.1 doesn't have
compress_depth so I'm just wondering what's the difference between the
two config files and which is the best to use as a template?

Cheers
