problem downloading vrt rules with oinkmaster

[Terry <td3201 () gmail com>]

Hello,

I am using oinkmaster to maintain my rules.  I configured the file
with my code and path.  I then ran it with these options:
oinkmaster.pl -o /etc/snort/rules -b /etc/snort/rules.backup -c -v

I assumed with the -c, it was just going to do a dry run.  It
downloaded rules and exited with a bunch of information but this most
importantly:
Oinkmaster is running in careful mode - not updating anything.

I then ran it again without the -c so it will actually download and
update my rules but I get this error now:

[root@omajelsflow01 ~]# oinkmaster.pl -o /etc/snort/rules -b
/etc/snort/rules.backup

Any ideas?  Thanks!
