So you are saying you have installed the snort-rules-default package but the /etc/snort/rules/ directory remains missing? Doing something manually could cause dpkg to not write the config files (although I have typically only seen this when you delete a config file installed by a package and then attempt to reinstall).
If this is the case reinstall snort-rules-default with `aptitude -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" reinstall snort-rules-default`. You can view what config files should be present with `dpkg -L snort-rules-default` On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 12:33 PM, Jari Fredriksson <ja...@iki.fi> wrote: > On 19.2.2010 18:00, Jordan Metzmeier wrote: >> Sounds like you want the package snort-rules-default.
