Guys, can you please advice best way to detect torrents? For now i use only one rule in my /etc/snort/snort.conf configuration file:

/etc/snort/rules/local.rules:

alert tcp $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET any (msg: "torrent"; content:"GET"; content:"torrent"; sid:1100021; rev:1;)

But i don't think it is best of snort can do to detect torrents.. I downloaded latest snortrules-snapshot-2931.tar.gz file from site snort.org using my oinkcode, i see, archive have some king of p2p.rules files..

How should i need to connect this p2p.rules to my snort?



Best Regards,
Dmitry
