Re: Duplicate rules & rule parser

Ignore the warnings is the solution. As you said this is by design. Community ruleset has the potential to be more up 
to date than the subscriber set, as it's published daily.

Hi,

 

Still waiting for some solution on my issue.


Anshuman two people chimed in with explanations (one of whom actually works for Sourcefire)... this behavior is by 
design. Snort will automatically use the rule with the higher revision but throe a warning.

Comment out the community rule set or ignore the warnings... that's the solution.
