There are a lot of "stock rules" to snort and it makes the /etc/snort directory
cluttered.  Please consider moving the rules to a subdirectory
/etc/snort/rules.

This will leave only the config and example files in /etc/snort.  It would also
allow users to make a subdir for their own rules and CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK for
the stock snort rules to get automatically updated as they change with the
distrubtion.

In cvs, in snort-2.3.3-r1.
Thanks for reporting!
