Hello,

Before I have a problem, I installed pulledpork for getting the latest rule from snort.

After that I restart snort but get this error:

but in the blacklist.rules, there are just ip address per line only


<trim digest>

Looks like you aren’t loading the blacklist as a blacklist inside the preprocessor.  It appears Snort is trying to load 
the Blacklist as a configuration option or something.

Can you attach your snort.conf?
