New securityonion-web-page package updates OSSEC and DNS Queries

I've updated our securityonion-web-page package to resolve a few issues.  The new package is securityonion-web-page -20120722-0ubuntu0securityonion19 and it has been tested by Matt Gregory (thanks!).

Issues Resolved
Issue 495: securityonion-web-page: OSSEC logs query should exclude MARK
https://code.google.com/p/security-onion/issues/detail?id=495

Issue 498: securityonion-web-page: add DNS IXFR query
https://code.google.com/p/security-onion/issues/detail?id=498

Release Notes
Previously, we added a "DNS - Zone Transfers" query that would look for full zone transfers (AXFR):
http://blog.securityonion.net/2014/02/new-securityonion-web-page-package-adds_19.html

This new package updates that query to also look for incremental zone transfers (IXFR) and group the results by the source IP address:
class=BRO_DNS proto="tcp" "axfr" OR "ixfr" groupby:srcip

The "Host Logs - All OSSEC Logs" query should now exclude any OSSEC --MARK-- logs as follows:
class=none program="ossec_archive" "2014" -"packets_received" -"--MARK--"

Updating
The new package is now available in our stable repo.  Please see the following page for full update instructions:
