I would have to say the Upgrade process. I have to do a diff on numerous rules files that i have edited and takes quite a bit of pain staking work to complete. === Maybe I'm not as extensive in my modifications, for example, I have never written a decoder, but I feel this is a process issue for you. I keep my rules in local_rules.xml. If I want to modify a 'stock' rule I copy it to local_rules.xml and use the 'overwrite=yes' option. I've never had anything but the most smoothness during upgrades. Don't modify the default OSSEC files; they don't belong to you, they belong to dcid :) This message contains TMA Resources confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
