ehlo *,

I have an important question about CDB lists, as I'm just researching for 
my thesis on OSSEC.
yes, i've read the documentation on readthedocs, maybe i'm too daft to 
understand it.

what I have done so far:

I've created a file called "baddomains" in /var/ossec/lists/
content is from zeustracker 
(https://zeustracker.abuse.ch/blocklist.php?download=baddomains)

I've added the list in the <rules></rules> section
<list>lists/baddomains</list>

i've run 
  # bin/ossec-makelists


i'm not quite sure what the purpose of the CDB lists is.... should a rule 
fire as soon as one of those domains (content of baddomains) is attacking 
me?!
I don't think i've yet understood the positive/negative key match of it

can someone please explain it to me with a real-life example?

also what does CDB stand for? I haven't found that in the OSSEC Docs 
either....
common database? central database?!

thanks,
theresa
