Over the years, I've installed snort using a variety of OS's and packages. It seems everyone installs snort files to a different place. I hate having some files in /etc/, and some in /usr/local. I was wondering if anyone uses a prefix of something like /usr/local/snort to keep snort it. I'm trying it out now, and after installing snort with the prefix of /usr/local/snort and then unpacking the VRT rules in the same directory, I have this: /usr/local/snort/ |-- bin |-- doc | `-- signatures |-- etc |-- lib | |-- pkgconfig | |-- snort_dynamicengine | `-- snort_dynamicpreprocessor |-- preproc_rules |-- rules |-- share | |-- doc | `-- man |-- so_rules | |-- precompiled | `-- src `-- src `-- snort_dynamicsrc I know this may sound like a trivial manner, but I'm just wondering what some of you have found helpful. Any suggestions are appreciated.
