-Snort has three primary functional modes.  It can be used as a packet sniffer 
-like tcpdump(1), a packet logger (useful for network traffic debugging, etc), 
-or as a full blown network intrusion detection and prevention system.
-
-Please read the snort_manual.pdf file that should be included with this 
-distribution for full documentation on the program as well as a guide to 
-getting started.
-
-This package builds a very basic snort implimentation useful for monitoring
-traffic as an IDS or packet logger and as a sort of improved tcpdump (which
-is what I use it for). MySQL support is included, so you should have little
-trouble hooking snort up to a database or ACID. For more information on
-these, check out snort's homepage at:
-
-  http://www.snort.org/
-  http://www.snort.org/docs/
-
-snort.org has a nasty habit of changing the location of their source
-code, which means there's no garauntee that the link in snort.info is
-correct.  If you can't get that link to work, look for the source code at:
-
-  http://www.snort.org/dl/old/
-
-In order for Snort to function properly, you need to provide rule files.
-I recommend registering for free at http://www.snorg.org so you can get these
-files. Once you have done that, go to http://snort.org/pub-bin/downloads.cgi
-and get the latest 2.8 series VRT Certified Rules. You need to untar this
-file and place follow files from etc in the tarball in to your /etc/snort
-directory :
-
-generators
-gen-msg.map
-sid
-sid-msg.map
-
-If you are going to use a front end like Base, you should copy the
-dog/signatures directory from the tarball in to 
-/usr/doc/snort-$VERSION/ . Last, but certainly not least, you must
-copy the contents of the rules/ directory in the tarball to
-/etc/snort/rules/ . After you've done this, you can safely restart
-snort or send a HUP to snort to reload the files (killall -HUP snort).
-
-A rc.snort file has been included for your convenience, but it needs to be
-added to your init script of choice to run on boot. You should modify the
-variables in /etc/rc.d/rc.snort to reflect the interface you want to monitor.
-This Slackbuild is no longer maintained by Alan Hicks, but rather me 
-(Thomas York), so email me instead if you have any questions.
