I think there's a point that it's not clear yet. We are talking about our case. We have developed a firewall called bastion-firewall and we distribute it as GPL, there's no commercial version. This firewall has an addon that integrates it with snort-inline, so we were distributing the *untouched* snort-inline package and snort rules with the firewall in a separate package. With the new license. Can we distribute the new rules as they are released or we have to wait until the next version of snort is released? We don't mind doing one thing or the other, or even just offer the integration so the end user can download and use your rules. We just want to be sure we are doing things right. Which of this options do you find more correct? Thanks and regards.
If I am understanding correctly, since you are not selling anything to anybody, you don't need a redistribution license. However, if you want your end users to be able to get rule updates outside of point releases, the end user will need to register at snort.org. -steve ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
