Hi Joel,

I just downloaded the latest version from snort.org/downloads
(snortrules-snapshot-3000.tar.gz), and it has not been updated (still has
the issue)
Thanks
Noah

Hello,
While testing the Registered ruleset with snort 3.0.1 b2, I found a bug
with the latest 3.0 rules: * snortrules-snapshot-3000.tar.gz.*

for the *snort.lua *file included in this ruleset, it still references
the old *SNORT_LUA_PATH*.  I found that if you remove the following lines
from this file

require('snort_config')

conf_dir = os.getenv('SNORT_LUA_PATH')

if ( not conf_dir ) then
   conf_dir = '.'
end

dofile(conf_dir .. '/snort_defaults.lua')
dofile(conf_dir .. '/file_magic.lua')


and add these lines (From the latest snort.lua generated by the make
process):

include 'snort_defaults.lua'
include 'file_magic.lua'


everything works perfectly.

Noah
