bug in script?

Hi,
I don't know if it's really a BUG or only something I have changed that I shouldn't have to, but I found a problem in snortd script that comes along with the snort-postgresql-1.8.7.i386.rpm.
In the place where the call to the status function is, you can see this:
status)
   status snort;
But when you write /service snortd status/, you get the following message: snort dead, but subsys locked. This is due to the fact that snort is a sym link to the snort-postgresql file, located in /usr/sbin (where the sym link indeed is). So the line should say:
status)
   status /usr/sbin/snort
And we will be able to know the actual status of our sensor.
Bye.
