Re: Snort / Pulled Pork Confusion

ok let me get this straight, we had to install snort and have a rules
file for it to run, or at least with local.rules, and now you are saying
we need pulledpork as the snort.conf is false in that is still has RULE
PATHS defined... very confusing,,, and on top of all that, define rules
in everything in barnyard2 but make sure to type it in cmdline, oh and
nnot able to connect to db locally remotely lol. this just is so
convoluted from the old snort... just put everything back the way it
was, drop daq, forget inline, and run tcpwrappers and a good firewall...
whats the whole point of ids anyway... you will be stuck in false
positive land for infinity... what you want is to protect your network,
now, snort inline, that makes sense, but trying to get everything to
work with base is not working anymore???

good gravy guys.... your firewall show drop repeat offenders, and allow
snort to log to db. run multiple snorts if you are worried to drop
packets, no one here has that much traffic, dont say you do, i wont
believe you. point is, put things back the way they were as in snort 1.x
thanks

pulledpork puts all the rules together into one file.. so you can
remove/comment out all the lines for the 'include $RULE_PATH/*.rules'
and just have include $RULE_PATH/snort.rules' line.  Just one is
needed.

Guys,



I’m having a little trouble wrapping my head around the snort and pulled
pork interaction.  In the snort.conf file, the following rules are defined
(by default):



include $RULE_PATH/attack-responses.rules

include $RULE_PATH/backdoor.rules

include $RULE_PATH/bad-traffic.rules

include $RULE_PATH/blacklist.rules

include $RULE_PATH/botnet-cnc.rules

include $RULE_PATH/chat.rules

include $RULE_PATH/content-replace.rules

include $RULE_PATH/ddos.rules

include $RULE_PATH/dns.rules

include $RULE_PATH/dos.rules

include $RULE_PATH/exploit.rules

include $RULE_PATH/file-identify.rules

include $RULE_PATH/finger.rules

include $RULE_PATH/ftp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/icmp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/icmp-info.rules

include $RULE_PATH/imap.rules

include $RULE_PATH/info.rules

include $RULE_PATH/misc.rules

include $RULE_PATH/multimedia.rules

include $RULE_PATH/mysql.rules

include $RULE_PATH/netbios.rules

include $RULE_PATH/nntp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/oracle.rules

include $RULE_PATH/other-ids.rules

include $RULE_PATH/p2p.rules

include $RULE_PATH/phishing-spam.rules

include $RULE_PATH/policy.rules

include $RULE_PATH/pop2.rules

include $RULE_PATH/pop3.rules

include $RULE_PATH/rpc.rules

include $RULE_PATH/rservices.rules

include $RULE_PATH/scada.rules

include $RULE_PATH/scan.rules

include $RULE_PATH/shellcode.rules

include $RULE_PATH/smtp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/snmp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/specific-threats.rules

include $RULE_PATH/spyware-put.rules

include $RULE_PATH/sql.rules

include $RULE_PATH/telnet.rules

include $RULE_PATH/tftp.rules

include $RULE_PATH/virus.rules

include $RULE_PATH/voip.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-activex.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-attacks.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-cgi.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-client.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-coldfusion.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-frontpage.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-iis.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-misc.rules

include $RULE_PATH/web-php.rules

include $RULE_PATH/x11.rules





When I compile snort, the $RULE_PATH directory isn’t created.  I create it
by `mkdir /opt/snort/rules`.  I then run pulled pork with the following
command:



./pulledpork.pl -c /opt/pulledpork/etc/pulledpork.conf -o /opt/snort/rules/
-i /opt/pulledpork/etc/disablesid.conf -T –H



The only file that shows up is `snort.rules`  where are all of the other
files that are specified in the snort.conf?
