I was testing the svn of Pulledpork and noticed that it was looping on
community rules and the md5sum check..

checking the community-rules.tar.gz.md5 shows that it's an empty file.
 I
tried downloading it myself in another directory and it's also empty.

Is this a recent problem or a known issue?

Hello Guys,

I have following query on fast_pattern; our snort.conf file has
*max-pattern-len
20 *for fast_pattern , I have only used* fast_pattern* keyword(here i
have
not used  fast_pattern:only; *or* * ** fast_pattern:x,y;*)  in the rule
for
the content which is more then 20 bytes to change the default snort
behavior of longest content as fast_pattern candidate .

My question : will "*fast_pattern* " keyword with a content size greater
then  20 bytes will override the snort's default longest content as
fast_pattern candidate and it will also override the max-pattern-len 20
or
should i use fast_pattern:only; to override the max-pattern-len and
snort
default longest content as fast_pattern  ?

Warm Regards

Arvind Kumar

1. where did you remove the preprocessors from?
2. where is the snort.conf pointing to for them?
3. what does "snort -V" return?
