Re: snorcenter2, Base, bleeding rules and sid-msg.map

Marty actually recently discussed the ability to generate the
sid-msg.map upon Snort startup.  Maybe we'll see that soon!!

try this out.. if you run it before you restart snort (or barnyard)
it will create a sid-msg.map file from your rules database. I'm not that
great of a perl scripter... but it gets the job done.. i call it before
i send barnyard a kill -HUP and it re-reads the file...

Hello All,



I've set up the latest version of snortcenter2 with the rule_combine
script working great fetching snort and bleeding snort rules.  I did
some poking around and it doesn't look like the script handles merging
the sid-msg.maps from the two different rulesets. What sid-msg.map is
used, the one on the BASE install, snortcenter2 install, or on the
sensor(s)?



Thanks in advance!
