Newbie question Snort and Demarc

[SkatFiend () aol com]

Hi everyone,

I just installed Demarc and mysql and a Win2K box the other day. Everything 
seems to be fine except for one major item. When snort starts it is not 
loading any rule sets. I used the snort.conf file from another box that has 
Snort + ACID with minor adjustments. Each time I start Demarc it appears to 
overwrite and rems out the "include" statements for the rules files. So snort 
starts correctly, parses the snort.conf file correctly but rules are read. 
Can anyone please tell me how this works?????

Thanks in advance.
