I've packaged Snort 2.9.4.1 and DAQ 2.0.0 and the new packages have been tested by the following (thanks!):

The new packages are now available in our stable repo. You can initiate the upgrade process using the graphical Update Manager or using the following one-liner:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Please note that, if you normally use the Registered User VRT Ruleset, you are on a 30-day delay and rules may not be available for Snort 2.9.4.1 yet.

Install Process

The Snort update will do the following:

  • back up each of your existing snort.conf file(s) to snort.conf.bak
  • update Snort to 2.9.4.1

If you're running Snort in production, then you'll need to do the following:

  • apply your local customizations to the new snort.conf file(s)
  • update ruleset and restart Snort as follows:
sudo rule-update
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

snort -V

Apply any local customizations to snort.conf and then run "sudo rule-update"
