Oinkmaster failed returning 65280 #2

Closed tuttimann closed 5 years ago

tuttimann commented 5 years ago

I've enabled automatic updates every hour and every hour I get the error message "Oinkmaster failed returning 65280" 4 times in the Logs. The number of activated rules didn't change either. What is this error message about and what can I do to fix this?

The most likely reason is that the files in /etc/snort/rules aren't all writeable by oinkmaster. The should be owned by nobody and have permissions 0644.

If that doesn't fix the problem, try running /usr/local/bin/ids0update.pl from the command line and look for any error messages.

This fixed it for me, thanks 👍
