Boy is that ever the truth. And when Keith Lloyd passed away just a few months later, it pretty much destroyed our little group (North Texas Snort Users Group.) We haven't been the same since and never will be again. :-( --On Wednesday, February 06, 2008 16:13:07 -0500 Joel Esler <joel.esler@sourcefire.com> wrote:
He was a great guy and is already sorely missed. J On Feb 6, 2008, at 4:00 PM, Seth wrote:Thanks Joel. I guess I am a little behind the times. Like Mike said on the post to snort.org, definitely a loss for the community. I credit Partrick's setup guide as the hand that guided me so gracefully into the snort community, and I will forever be thankful. He was the perfect example of what makes the snort and other open source software communities so great. -Seth On Feb 6, 2008 3:53 PM, Joel Esler <joel.esler@sourcefire.com> wrote:July 5, 2007. http://www.snort.org/pub-bin/snortnews.cgi?page=7 On Feb 6, 2008, at 3:44 PM, Seth wrote:Patrick passed away?

An announcement will be sent out when the application is available online. This year's scholarship program will be in memory of Patrick and all of his contributions to the community. John is correct. There is a 30 day delay from the original release date for each VRT updates. After 30 days new rules are available free of charge to registered users of Snort.org. -Mike John Pritchard wrote:There was a VRT release today 2008-02-05. Currently, if you don't "subscribe" there is a 30 day delay before you have access to the new rules.....

The current version of Snort available for download is 2.8.0.1 and there is a version 2.8 ruleset available for subscribers but only a version 2.7 ruleset available for registered users. I realize that there CURRENT rulesets for both subscriber and registered users but have read several times to not use CURRENT rulesets on production systems. I also remember reading the first of January that the subscriber rulesets were available to subscribers only until January 17 or so. Now I see that it says the rules are available to subscribers only until March 5, 2008 but still don't see any version 2.8 rules for registered users. What is the specific delay between subscriber and registered ruleset availability? Mike, any word on the Patrick Harper scholarship? Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
