Re: [1/2OT] Oinkmaster - not updating

The more so that messages scrolling on the screen point to the
idenfied_as_needed changes (adds/removes), which - in theory - won't
be possible, unless the previous version of rules was found and
analyzed, right? ... odd ... any ideas on what else could cause
this?!?

Thx,
Stef

The behavior you describe is exactly what the -c flag is supposed to do, and
it appears that you are using that flag.

Sorry for the semi-off-topic, but couldn't find a hint in either my
logs, or on the 'net: oinkmaster 1.0 + snort 2.1, w/installs as
expected in the oinkmaster.conf. When running oinkmaster (-c -o
/<path_to_rules> -b /<backup_path>) I see the output as properly
identifying the differences, I get the rules downloaded in the /tmp
directory (where I created the appropriate ./rules), but the actual
update ini the <path_to_rules> never happens. Does anybody have any
idea where I could possibly look for hints  about the failure?

P.S. of course <...> are real paths ;)
