Hard to say without seeing the errors, but I will tell you what gave me a
headache the first time I tried. Downloading the rules from my windows
machine and then doing a "binary" ftp to a unix system, which screws up the
newline characters and then the rule file cant be read correctly. If this is
what you are doing, use ASCII.

Every release is run through the rules parser without errors, so there may
be something specific to your environment. Please send your error message
to infowhitehats.com or the forums and someone will help you get it going
:)

Thanks,
