Hi all,

In my snort.conf the the path to my rules is set to:

var RULE_PATH /etc/snort/rules

However when I run:

snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

I get the following message:

ERROR: Undefined variable name: (/etc/snort/rules/exploit.rules:20):
SMTP_SERVERS
Fatal Error, Quitting..
Your loading a rule that references the variable SNMP_SERVERS but you haven't 
set that variable. Either set SNMP_SERVERS in your snort.conf or take a look 
at the rule to determine if you really need to be watching it.
