Hello, Please I need help extracting my snort rules with this command # tar -xzvf snortrules-2931.tar.gz I get this erro message zip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now I downloaded the file with this command # # wget http://www.snort.org/sub-rules/snortrules-snapshot- 2923.tar.gz/<oinkcode> -O snortrules-2931.tar.gz
I have an interesting question, while it doesn't answer your question directly.. Why are you downloading the 2923 ruleset and renaming it 2931? Why not just download the 2931 ruleset? -- Joel Esler Senior Research Engineer, VRT OpenSource Community Manager Sourcefire ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
