Hi,

I'm trying to set up another Bro cluster, and I'm getting this error on the worker nodes:

error in /usr/local/bro/spool/installed-scripts-do-not-touch/auto/local-networks.bro, line 3: syntax error, at or near "redef"

This is the file:

# Automatically generated. Do not edit.

redef Site::local\_nets = {  
&nbsp;&nbsp;10.0.0.0/8, # Private IP space  
&nbsp;&nbsp;192.168.0.0/16, # Private IP space  
};

I don't see a syntax error. Has anybody seen anything like this before? I'm running from git master, commit 927f534.

You probably have an error at the end of your local.bro

Thanks. My local-worker.bro was missing a '}'.
