Re: Testing Snort

[Dr SuSE <drsuse () drsuse org>]

One way to test Snort if your using it to watch a webserver is to use 
www.safeweb.com or www.anonymizer.com and surf to you server and put cmd.exe at 
the end of the url.  This should trigger the cmd.exe exploit rule.
www.yourwebserver.com/cmd.exe
