New Snort 2.2 Rules

["Walt Rich" <walt.rich () parago com>]

I updated the Snort rules to the latest available on Souceforge's site.
They wre auite out of date, and almost a year old.  Snort is up and
running, but has become very queit!  It used to detect alot of false
positives, which were a pain, but at least I knew it was working.  Now
it is very, very quiet, and hasn't detected anything in over 2 hours.
Is it possible that the rule writers have become so good that the
detection of false positives has been almost eliminated?  Has anyone
else experienced anything similar?  Any input is greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks!
