我配置在我的Ubuntu 12.04上安装Snort，其中还包括Barnyard2和BASE安装。我正在使用Snort网站上的可下载规则，这需要我在那里注册才能获得oinkcode。
但是，在我调查了我提取到所有规则所在的目录中/etc/snort/rules规则之后，所有这些规则都是空的。这是规则之一看起来像

谁能帮我指出这些规则有什么问题？我下载了带有使用snort-2.9.7.0的oinckode的snortrules-snapshot-2970.tar.gz。有什么解决办法吗？如果需要，我也可以发布 snort 配置文件 （snort.conf），我不知道如何在后期缩短它。
并非所有文件都是空的。 当规则从旧类别结构移动到新类别结构时，旧文件将保留在那里以实现向后兼容性。
