Hi all, I’m new to Bro and I’m trying to follow Liam Randall’s video tutorial on extracting files from HTTP streams. I’ve just cloned the git repository ```auto git clone --recursive git://[git.bro-ids.org/bro](http://git.bro-ids.org/bro) and have built Bro according to the quick start guide on the Bro documentation web page. ``` ```auto When Liam looks at "$PREFIX/share/base/protocols/http" I do not see (on my computer) some of the files that Liam has in his installation of Bro in his video.(e.g. file-extract.bro and file-ident.bro are not there) ``` ```auto Can anyone point me in the right direction? ``` ```auto Thanks in advance ``` ![](https://mail.google.com/mail/images/cleardot.gif)James ---

If you want to follow Liam's video you will need to use 2.1. Git master has huge changes to how file handling works.   .Seth ---
