Re: Latest snort.conf

["Weir, Jason" <jason.weir () nhrs org>]

OK Joel - round 2..

I'm documenting the snort install\config - I need the latest snort.conf
long before I get to needing any rules and... 

What if I'm not a subscriber\registered user and don't plan on using the
VRT ruleset any way I can get the latest snort.conf?

Seems an odd place to maintain the snort conf file as it's not rule
specific...  Any chance of you guys providing a the latest snort.conf or
a patch file somewhere other than the ruleset?

Thanks,
Jason
