Re: Output database option - Back in?

["Michael Steele" <michaels () winsnort com>]

Joel, I think he is talking about the Snort manual. I wouldn't even give it
a second thought, I know I wouldn't from someone that posted a cryptic
message such as he did. Some people :/

Kindest regards,
Michael...

We don't write the guides, they are contributed by the community, which we
are grateful for.  If there is an issue with the install guides, please
address them with the authors themselves on the Snort-users mailing lists.
