      After a successful update to snort to the latest pkg I am getting the following errors in the logs…

      Jun 1 19:04:18 php: : There is a new set of Snort rules posted. Downloading...
      Jun 1 19:04:18 php: : Could not fetch snort rules (/tmp/snortRulesy8EEuK/snortrules-snapshot-2.8.tar.gz). Check oinkid key and dns and try again.

      Any ideas whats going?

      TIA!

          jamesdean,

          Thank you for the help.
          I just reinstall the pkg and when it was downloading I notice it had the same version as the one I was running 2.8.4.1
          Is there a change to this pkg?
          Right now I am re downloading the initial update…. Is crawling! LOL :)
          I will test and see if there still the is after re install.
