Team,
 
Are the new rule names new or are the replacing old name rulesets?  I ask due to:
Oct 24 15:25:31 10.10.254.110 snort[6176]: /opt/etc/snort/rules/VRT-shellcode.rules(11) GID 1 SID 14986 duplicates 
previous rule. Using higher revision.

content:"|D9 EE D9|t|24 F4|X"; metadata:policy balanced-ips drop, policy security-ips drop;

Should I remove shellcode.rules and just use indicator-shellcode.rules?  Thanks all.
