Hello Stefan,

thanks for your reply.

Version 9 now looks good to me. I had to grant executable file permissions to the convert
script, but that's not a big deal:

[root(a)maverick ~]# /usr/sbin/convert-ids-multiple-providers
-bash: /usr/sbin/convert-ids-multiple-providers: Permission denied
[root(a)maverick ~]# chmod +x /usr/sbin/convert-ids-multiple-providers
[root(a)maverick ~]# /usr/sbin/convert-ids-multiple-providers

Since the script already ran on that machine, I had to execute

chown nobody:nobody /var/ipfire/suricata/suricata-default-rules.yaml

myself. Every functionality provided by the WebUI seems to work fine, and I was unable to
break anything. :-)

(With URLhaus enabled, Suricata takes ages to reload on my testing machine, I am curious
how many people will enable this provider despite the performance impact... We'll see.)

As soon as there is a testing announcement for Core Update 163, I will start a temporary
branch for Core Update 164 and merge https://git.ipfire.org/?p=people/stevee/ipfire-2.x.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/master-IDSv3
into it.

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller
