RE: The order that rules are processed in?

Carefull with that thought... the rules distro includes local.rules but
it's empty (except for comments) and _will_ over-write whatever you've
put in that file.

Rather create a myrules.rules (or something different then the distro)
and put local stuff in there. Whatever you name it, don't forget to add
the filename to snort.conf as well.

------------------------
Thanks.  That means I can put all the custom rules in local.rules and
they won't get smashed when I update the rulesets.  I appreciate the
help.

If you start snort with the -o options, yes - pass rules 1st...
