      FYI As you can see in today's update http://www.snort.org/vrt/docs/ruleset_changelogs/changes-2012-03-27.html there is now no snort 2.9.0.5 updates as it is end of life. Would it be possible to update snort to 2.9.2.2 or something supported? If so could there is other preprocessors to look at but also in http_inspect preprocessor there is now JavaScript deobfuscation. :-D

      Thanks.
      Kindest Regards,
      Kevin

        Nope, not EOL.  Current and previous version is supported.  Our snort package is at:

        Snort 2.9.1 pkg v. 2.1.1

        So, v2.9.1 is the previous version.  We should be good.

          The package may say 2.9.1 but its using 2.9.0.5 binaries.

            Any new developments with regard to the snort version? I have not seen any posts from the package maintainer in a while. Tempted to uninstall the pfsense package and try an install and configuration from the command line - though I really like the gui interface.

              I also wonder where this issue currently stands?  I had no issue adding and enabling rules, but I'm new to this so I'm unable to determine if the rules are current or truncated to support the EOL version.
