Can anybody tell me the configuration file for Snorby for using the sid-msg.map file? Also please tell me configuration 
parameters for it. Any references?

ok.  I know my config for barnyard  & snort is referring the same file which is produced by pulledpork. But where do I 
tell Snorby to use the same sid-msg.map file? It is already configured to generate version 1 of sid-msg.map.

Snorby needs to be using the sid-msg.map that pulledpork produces, you also need to be sure that you have your 
pulledpork configured to generate a version 1 (one) sid-msg.map as I do not think that Snorby is compatible with the 
new version that was designed for use with Barnyard.

Sorry for the encrypted mail which was recently sent by mistake. My apologies.

What I was saying was - which configuration file does Snorby refer in which the sid-msg.map file is specified?

Looks like Snorby is not reading from the correct sid-msg.map file.

Hi,

I am observing that an event shown in the snort terminal window appears in the Snorby console with a different 
description. Kindly see below output in the terminal window and refer attachment for same event how it appears in 
Snorby. This event appears in Snorby as “ssh: Gobbles exploit”. SIG & GID is same for both.

Has anybody encountered this issue?

Snort terminal window

I have recently upgraded from Snort version 2.9.5 to 2.9.6.1 (it was compiled from source). After upgrade I have 
replaced the older version of files classification.config, gen.msg.map, reference.config & unicode.map.  Am I missing 
something which is causing this issue?

I use pulledpork version 0.7.0 to update my rules. I update text based rules & so_rules with pulledpork. I use barnyard 
2.1.9 (Build 263) - XFF patch (version 2). I am using mysql  ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.73, for redhat-linux-gnu (x86_64) 
using readline 5.1.

Let me know in case any other information regarding my setup is needed.

Thanks.


Regards,
Anshuman
