Title: Snort 2.9.5.5 pkg v3.0.2 Update -- Bug Fixes

Snort 2.9.5.5 pkg v3.0.2
==================

Change Log: 01/12/2014
----------------

This is a bug-fix update only. No new features are introduced. The following issues are addressed in this update.

1. IPv6 gateway on WAN interface not included in automatic whitelist when IPv6 is enabled.

2. Snort Alert Log directory size limit not being enforced when enabled on the Global Settings tab. This resulted in the logging directories for Snort continuing to grow even when auto-pruning was enabled. This was a problem mainly for installations using CF cards as it could eventually cause the /var volume to fill to 100%.

3. Alert Log entries on the Alerts tab not sorting correctly during transition to a new year. The sort was by month without taking in account the year. This resulted in alerts from 12/31/2013 showing as more recent than alerts from 01/01/14, for example, when sorted in descending order because 12 would come before 01 when sorted descending .

4. In some instances CF card installations would log "file system is currently mounted read-only" errors when writing a new configuration file. The code was neglecting to remount the file system read-write prior to writing an updated configuration file.
