Using wget or ftp to get VRT rules


Posted by DavidG on March 14, 2005 11:20:33

I'm a registered user. Is it possible to use wget or ftp in a script to download the latest snapshot of rules?

Nevermind, I found it.
In case anyone else has the same question:
I went to User Preferences at snort.org, got an Oinkmaster download code, and followed the example to build a URL and used the URL with wget.

Hehehe... THANKS! That's EXACTLY why I came here! Mine stopped updating a while ago... more drama in the life of a network administrator I guess...
