How do I download/install latest .exe for sniffer?
Most likley you will need to stop message processing in order to upgrade your SNF installation.
For Version 2
- Find or build the sniffer.exe for your operating system.
- Rename that file for your license ID.
- Make a backup copy of your current .exe
- Copy the new .exe over the current .exe
For Version 3
- Download the lastest distribution for your platform.
- Make backup copies of your existing SNF executables (or plugin DLLs).
- Copy the newer SNF executables over the current executables.
It is always a good idea to read any readme files and/or release notes before upgrading any software.
Note: Version 3 configuration files for newer releases are intended to be backward compatible to previous Version 3 configuration files (2-9beta also). You should not need to change your configuration file when you upgrade unless you want to take advantage of newer features UNLESS a required / recommended change is indicated in the documentation.
