Re: BASE rule display

Make a subdirectory under base called rules and copy the rule files from
snort to there.  A link will appear with the other references in the
analysis views in base called rules.  This will show you the text of the
rule that triggered the alert.

What do you mean exactly?  Base already has two methods of bringing up
rule details.  There is a link to the rules .txt file and also you can link
to the rule itself (actually you copy the rules into a directory that the
base config points to).  This second method seems to do a grep and returns
the full rule text when you click on [rule].  Is that what you wanted?


I think he means, when you bring up an alert, just have the rule text,
right there for display in the screen.

Subject: [Snort-users] BASE rule display

Im a bit new to Snort/Base and Im wondering if there a way to get BASE
to display the full text of a rule that fires an alert, this would
really help the learning process.

Thanks
