Your rule file should be here:

/etc/snort/rules/snort.rules

According to the dump you posted below.

I highly recommend that you go ahead and change your oinkcode (like right now), do not post it in public!

To answer your questions:

- It depends on how you configure PulledPork: either all to one file (snort.rules) or you copy over the individual rules files. PulledPork handles all of that. - If you do not do the modification in PulledPork's modifysid.conf, then all of your changes will get overwritten. - We will need to see how you are configuring PulledPork (minus your oinkcode).

I have set up pulled pork and would like to know

·where all the rules get written to

·what happens if I modify one of these rules and run the command again

·why when I empty the rules folder and run the pulledpork command the folder is still empty

[root@snort snort]# pulledpork.pl -c /etc/pulledpork/pulledpork.conf -vv

It appears that all of your rules are bi-directional. “<>”. Try making them single directional “->”

Hello

I needs some help in writing some rules to test my network.

I have set up snort, barnyard2, snorby on centos 7

My home network is

ipvar HOME_NET [172.16.0.0/22,172.16.12.0/24,172.16.13.0/24,31.221.13.192/29,62.49.167.0/29,62.49.167.8/29,192.168.254.0/24,192.168.202.0/24,192.168.218.0/24,10.0.2.0/24,10.0.3.0/24,192.168.15.0/24,172.16.64.0/18,172.16.15.0/24,172.16.16.0/22,10.0.0.0/24,10.0.1.0/24,192.168.252.0/24,172.16.171.0/24,10.40.135.0/24,172.16.8.0/24,172.16.9.0/24,192.168.0.0/24,172.0.0.0/24,105.0.0.0/24,192.168.1.1/24,192.168.224.0/20,212.103.166.96/30]

The following are some test rules which I put in local.rules

alert icmp !$HOME_NET any <> $HOME_NET any (msg:"ICMP"; sid: 1000001; rev:1;) # external ping to internal network?

alert tcp $HOME_NET any <> $HOME_NET any (content:"|00 01 86 a5|"; msg:"mountd access";sid:1000002;rev:1;) # found a sample online which has not responded to anything

alert tcp !$HOME_NET :139 <> $HOME_NET any (msg:"NetBIOS Session";sid:1000003;rev:1;) # test external ip trying to mount

alert tcp !$HOME_NET :445 <> $HOME_NET any (msg:"SMB over TCP";sid:1000004;rev:1;) # test external ip trying to mount

Have I written them correctly?

For my samba alerts I have found it also includes internal network, when I look at the source port on snorby, its not always 139 or 445. What am I doing wrong?
