Snort 2.0.3 is available.  We recommend that everyone upgrade at their
soonest opportunity.

Enhancements:  RPMS can now be made by rpmbuild -ta snort-2.0.3.tar.gz

               Big thanks to JP Vossen <vossenjp () netaxs com> and
               Daniel Wittenberg <daniel-wittenberg () starken com> for
               making this possible. They are now the official RPM
               maintainers

Fixes:

  - doe_ptr handling in byte_test/byte_jump slightly modified to work
    better with the pcre patch
  - content processing is now recursive to make
    distance/within processing better ( thanks to Shai Rubin for
                                        patch! )
  - fixed a bug in the mwm.c pattern matcher that resulted in some
    alerts not firing in a particular configuration of rules

    Thanks to Raul Siles & David Perez for a reproducible test case!

    NOTE: If you do not have time to update your sensors to 2.0.3 at
          the current time,  add:

             config detection: search-method lowmem  OR
             config detection: search-method ac 

          to your snort.conf


Thanks to everyone who made this possible!
