The link he was using worked fine for me. I tested the get and got the rules with no no problem.. with the link he had. His problem is not related to a bad link. The examples show that you need a file name (http://snort.org/snort-rules/cli) and when you go to the page before, the main download page (http://snort.org/snort-rules/?), it shows the file names. They are not trying to make this overly confusing and hard.. but it does require some effort and understanding on the installers part. Or, you could sign in and grab them from the gui, or use pullpork. 3 different methods to get the rules..
or even oinkmaster with the properly styled older format which still works quite well... oinkmaster, too, works quite if you only want a download and rules updating tool without all the extras that pulledpork offers ;)
The examples are generic enough that they don't have to change whenever the rule file changes. Lets let the developers work on keeping the software fixed and nor worry about the web page not having the most specific instructions.
