Yes, chapter 7 rules!  :)

6 is good, but it's no 7...

Seriously, I agree with you OlRoy. That book came out better than any
I'd ever read before, and I'm not just saying that because I wrote a
chapter. The other contributors to it (including Joel) put some
incredible info in there. Much easier to use and apply I think.

Glad you're enjoying it.

Thanks Joel, I'll do that.  I'm on chapter 5 now so I should be on 6
later today.  So far I'm loving the book.  I've read a few books on
Snort, and this one is turning out to be my favorite.

Matt, chapter 7 is one of the chapters that I'm looking forward to
reading the most.  I've skimmed through it and can tell it will be a
good read.

Thank you both for sharing your knowledge!
