      First of all I would like to say Thank you and an excellent job well done.  As of right now i think snort is down so i couldn't get my oink code so i can't test the update.  But snort working great.

          Man oh man.

          Snort.org changed the way there files are downloaded. Third night in a row….
          The md5 file downloads but is emty. This is there way to enforce the 15 min wait for updates.

          thanx

                  Hey!

                  Snort up and running again.

                  Running pfsense 1.2.2

                  ReInstalled snort package, downloaded the rules.
                  Had to save the rules before I could start snort, otherwise it said unable to load the rules.

                  Thanks for all the hard work!

                        James,

                        Please check your pm.

                        Also if you need hardware for development I have no problem getting you an Alix Board… Unless you really need a Mini-ITX than I can look in to the Mini-ITX form factor but I would prefer donating a Brand new Alix board to you. If interested please PM.
                        Somebody else can pitch in the rest of the hardware??

                        Take Care!

                                Ok thanks…

                                Right now I am not able to start Snort at all after the update... Since the update is broken it does not want to start....

                                By the way enjoy your new board. Ailx Boards are awesome and they get the job done. Hopefully it fits well for your snort coding.

                                  The downloaded file does not match the md5 file…

                                  Error md5 Mismatch...
