I'm new to Linux and SNORT and was wondering if I could get some tips and/or
help.  I have installed SNORT v1.8 rpm on Red Hat 7.1, when it complained
about missing a file, which I believe was the rules file, I just supplied it
with a blank file.  I'm not sure if there are some sort of rules I need to
download or if it updates them itself.  I've been seeing a lot of activity
(80-90% ARP Broadcasts), but so far SNORT reports no activity.  Is there a
way to test it and ensure it is working ok.  Also, is there some where I
show get updated rules from?  I kept clicking on links on the website for
rules, but came to the download page and couldn't find anything.  Any help
would be great.
