Hi All,

We use wget to obtain rule updates from snort.org with our oink code, but it
is now broken.  Apparently, snort.org is now behind cloudflare, which denies
direct IP access.  Basically, the cert wget ultimately receives is
cloudflare's cert, not snort.org's.  A web browser seems to get redirected
somehow to the real snort site and gets the snort.org cert.  Thoughts?

wget works fine over here...  we've not seen any problems using it other than a 
few niggles here and there that were easily taken care of...

do you perhaps mean amazonaws instead of cloudfare?

what url are you using to get the rules? (obfuscate your oinkcode)

what version of snort are you trying to get rules for?
