New Setup and NSM packages now available for Security Onion!

The following packages are now available:
securityonion-nsmnow-admin-scripts - 20120724-0ubuntu0securityonion199
securityonion-setup - 20120912-0ubuntu0securityonion285

This should resolve the following issues:

Setup: update setup conf files #1417
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1417

Setup: Fix bug where the regex in sed disables incorrect interfaces #1427
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1427

Setup: add logger node to Bro node.cfg #1420
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1420

Setup: configure Bro cluster mode for AF_PACKET #1421
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1421

Setup: configure Suricata for AF_PACKET #1432
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1432

NSM: Improve the method of updating thread count in suricata.yaml #1230
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1230

NSM: support running Suricata using AF_PACKET #1431
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1431

As an overview, these updates will cause new installations to configure Bro and Suricata to collect network traffic via AF_PACKET (instead of PF_RING as we've done for the last few years).  Installations already configured for PF_RING will continue to use PF_RING.  Please see the links above for background information and config changes.
