We did get advance notification that there would be more strict error checking, which as I mentioned we are all for!! Now we know what things are being enforced with the release and can start fixing them up. This won't take long, no worries. Matt On Dec 21, 2010, at 11:42 AM, evilghost () packetmail net wrote:

I don't recall seeing this one on the list so it may have been direct to the ET crew. Quoted below: "This is another issue found internally while troubleshooting for Emerging-Threats. VRT rules are not affected by this change. If rule writers have invalid combinations that existed in custom rules (depth with within, or distance with no relative content match, etc) Snort will now error on this. The Snort Manual has been updated to reflect these facts." I imagine you've already reached out to the ET crew and just didn't rely on the blog entry only to notify ET of these issues. I likely missed the communication with ET so I'll bite my tongue with respect to what exactly "OpenSource community" is.Joel-evilghost * Unknown Key * 0xEEEB1387(L) _______________________________________________ Emerging-sigs mailing list Emerging-sigs () emergingthreats net http://lists.emergingthreats.net/mailman/listinfo/emerging-sigs Support Emerging Threats!
