Hi Chipsy,

I think that the correct mailing list would be [snort-users].

Anyway, you may try the option -T from the command line so that SNORT tests
itself.

Another way to properly test it, is to create a rule you can trigger with a
certain pcap, and open that pcap with the option -r <file> (
http://manual.snort.org/node8.html)

Regards!
Emiliano.
