Hi,

 

After resolving the issues with UTC vs. local time (apparently the Sniffer service doesn’t actually use a version identifier inside the SNF file, but relies on the Windows file date to determine what rulebase version is in place), here the updated getRuleBase.cmd.

1. Get the latest CURL.EXE for Win 2000 or higher from http://curl.haxx.se/latest.cgi?curl=win32-nossl-sspi (don’t use older builds to avoid timezone issues).


Does this resolve the timestamp issues you indicated in your previous message?


SNF gets the timestamp from the file system the using gmtime() of the modification timestamp on the file. The same call is made in the SYNC server software when the rulebase timestamp is provided to the SNF node for comparison.


gmtime() provides the UTC time (used to be known as GMT) for any timestamp.
