I believe that in the real 1.8.4 release that is in woody, the rules files were all places in /etc/snort/ amongst the configuration files etc. In later releases the files moved to /etc/snort/rules/. I believe this change was introduced even before I adopted the package. -- | A conscience is what hurts when all of your other parts feel so good. | 1024D/08CEC94D - 34B3 3314 B146 E13C 70C8 9BDB D463 7E41 08CE C94D
