Title: Snort Alerts Dashboard Widget Package Update to 0.3.7

Snort Alerts Widget Change Log
=========================

This is a bug fix update to correct the sorting of Snort Alerts in the Dashboard display. The default log entry format for Snort Alerts has the date in MM/DD/YY form (month, day and two-digit year). This format does not always sort properly. This fix alters a field in an internal array such that the date format is YY/MM/DD. This allows for correct sorting in situations such as the rollover to a new year.

Snort Package Change Log
-------------------------------------

A similar issue as described above exists in the Snort ALERTS tab in the Snort package. This update also includes a quick fix for the Snort ALERTS tab. The fix in the Snort package was to add the "-r" parameter to the "tail" command so that log entries are returned from the end of the log first. This in effect "self-sorts" the ALERTS tab entries. The Snort package version is not incremented.
