PF_RING 5.5.3 packages now available

PF_RING 5.5.3 was recently released:
http://www.ntop.org/pf_ring/pf_ring-5-5-3-released/

I've packaged PF_RING 5.5.3 and the packages have been tested by the following (thanks!):
David Zawdie
Matt Gregory

The new packages are now available in our stable repo.  To ensure that the PF_RING kernel module is installed before any Ubuntu kernel updates, you may want to install as follows:
sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install securityonion-pfring-module ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
For more information, please see our Upgrade page:
https://code.google.com/p/security-onion/wiki/Upgrade

The securityonion-pfring-module package will do the following:

  • stop all NSM sensor processes
  • terminate any remaining processes using PF_RING
  • remove the existing PF_RING module
  • build the new PF_RING module
  • start all NSM sensor processes
