Do you mean put that in snort.conf?  Because when i tried that it just
thought you were reading the same rules files multiple times and failed as
the same pid's were being used multiple times. And the http_ports variable
was over-written 3 times.


Yeap, the SIDs will cause problems.  Barnyard and Oinkmaster wouldn't
play nice either.  One possible solution is to create separate rules
files for each port.  This looks ugly...

Really? Never had a problem with that. Just created a small test file
with a duplicate rule, but changed ports. Snort reads both rules without
a complaint.

What version of Snort are you using that causes that error? Or is the
error caused by some third party app?
