Hi all.... :) I just want to know more about this following line on snort configurations file.. var PREPROC_RULE_PATH ../preproc_rules what is preprocessor rules are?? and then, since I know that Snort's preprocessor only use plug-ins for its process, is it something that I missed about this "rules" for preprocessor... Any response supporting this question will greatly appreciated Thanks in advance Rachmat Hidayat Al Anshar
From the ChangeLog:
2007-08-30 Steven Sturges <ssturges@sourcefire.com>
<snip>
Added support to provide action control (alert, drop, pass, etc)
over preprocessor and decoder generated events, as well as references
and classifications via a rule. These rules do not include IP
addresses as the individual preprocessor/decoder configuration
dictates the traffic to which an event applies. In conjunction
with this, certain post-processing rule options (tag, logto, etc)
may be added to those rules, while other options that relate to data
inspection (content, byte_test, etc) may not. Enable via
--enable-decoder-preprocessor-rules option to configure.
Been there for a while.
