It appears that both the "reload" and the "rotate" options in the
sniffer executable are still accepted by SNFClient.exe but are
deprecated, as neither parameter appears in the help or in the
contextual help when SNFClient.exe is run without parameters.

Hello,
I am using the latest beta version of Message Sniffer. I am asking this
question because I thought I read this somewhere but I can not find
where I read it.
If I copy my rule database file to the c:\snf directory while
SNFServer.exe is running, does SNFServer automatically load the new
updated rule database?
Yes.

If so, how long does it usually take before SNFServer realizes that
there is a new rule database that was copied to that directory?
Within about a second of seeing the new file it will load and
check the new rulebase. If there is something wrong with the rulebase
file it will keep the current rulebase active until a better one shows
up.

Is there anyway to verify that SNFServer has loaded the latest rule
database that was copied? I know I can run a SNF2check.exe on the rule
database to check the file before I copy it, but it would be great to
know if SNFServer.exe has loaded the latest copy that I have copied to
the c:\snf directory.
SNFServer will indicate that the new rulebase was loaded in it's
log file.
Hope this helps,
_M
