    Summary: Automated updating of Snort IDS rules
    Description: 
    Oinkmaster is simple Perl script released under the BSD license that
    helps you keep your Snort rules current with little or no user
    interaction. It has quite a few useful features regarding rules
    management, such as ability to enable, disable and modify specified
    rules after each update. It will tell you the exact changes from your
    previous rules, so you have total control of what's going on.
    It may be useful in conjunction with any program that can use Snort
    rules, like Snort (doh!) or Prelude-NIDS.
    
    Oinkmaster is most often used to grab the latest official rules tarball
    from www.snort.org and apply a set of modifications to them (such as
    disabling unwanted ones), but it can just as well be used to manage
    your local rules and also third party rules and distribute them to
    multiple sensors with ability to fine-tune the rules on each sensor or
    group of sensors. Oinkmaster is designed to integrate well with other
    scripts and you can easily setup a very powerful rules management system.
    See the FAQ for hints and suggestions.
