You will need to rebuild sid-msg.map and gen-msg.map to include the
bleeding-edge rules. I use the create_sidmap.pl script that comes with
oinkmaster and snort's '-c' flag:


(run after all rules are updated and copied into /opt/snort/rules)
/opt/oinkmaster/create_sidmap.pl /opt/snort/rules | sort -u >
/opt/snort/rules/sid-msg.map
/opt/snort/bin/snort -c /opt/snort/etc/snort.conf
--dump-dynamic-preproc-genmsg /opt/snort/rules/gen-msg.map

After the map files are regenerated you will want to restart barnyard so
that it rereads them.
