[sniffer] Re: FTP access to snf rulebase files is no longer available.
Thanks, Pete. I was looking for the code I needed to add to the scripts that would automate that?

I see where this is mentioned but after checking the scripts I don't think this is happening. How can I do this? It is ok to compress your log files before uploading them. Compress one file at a time -- not groups of logs. .zip or .gz formats are ok. There's nothing else special about it. For example, your .log file is compressed with gzip or zip and ends up being .log.gz or .log.gz -then you upload the compressed version.

Hi Pete, I don't think our logs are being compressed even though I'm using the snifferupdatetools. I see where this is mentioned but after checking the scripts I don't think this is happening. How can I do this? Thanks, Bill Foresman Matrosity Hosting 850-656-2644 -Original Message- From: "Pete McNeil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent 11/23/2007 2:34:58 AM To: "Message Sniffer Community" Subject: [sniffer] FTP access to snf rulebase files is no longer available. Hello Sniffer Folks, It has come to our attention that a few folks out there have not yet changed their rulebase update scripts to use http (usually wget + gzip) and are still using FTP. FTP access to SNF rulebases was deprecated some time ago. With the recent upgrades to our servers we have discontinued FTP access to the rulebase files. Please adjust your scripts to use http instead of ftp. Most likely you will wish to use wget and gzip (the combination can ensure that downloads only occur when a new file is available and can allow the file to be compressed on-the-fly to substantially reduce the bandwidth requirements). You can find a number of example scripts by following these links: http://kb.armresearch.com/index.php?title=Message_Sniffer.TechnicalDetails.AutoUpdates http://kb.armresearch.com/index.php?title=Message_Sniffer.TechnicalDetails.SubmittedScripts Shortly after the next version of SNF is out of beta we hope to discontinue FTP access for uploading rulebase files. The new version of SNF provides real-time telemetry so that uploaded log files are no-longer necessary. Sorry for any confusion about this.
