I've got snort installed (from ports on OpenBSD).

It came with a ton of example files.

Do I just cat them into one file for use with snort?

ie if I want to monitor porno, chat and exploits

cat porno.rules > snort.rules
cat chat.rules >> snort.rules
cat exploit.rules >> snort.rules

snort -c snort.rules

My second question what does snort stand for?
