loads this snort-rules-default, but nothing comes in /etc/snort. I even tried to load it manually (before asking here), but no joy. Jordan Metzmeier On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 10:32 AM, Jari Fredriksson ja...@iki.fi wrote: aptitude install snort will not create /etc/snort.conf nor the rule

Java plugins in 64bit Debian

I installed a Debian Lenny (amd64), and sun-jdk in addition to the default gcj based default Java. When I access Java content with Firefox (or is IceWeasel) the browsed prompts me to install JDK... Clicking the prompt shows Sun's website with download button. I installed that, but nothing
