[Bro] BroArgs in broctl.cfg

[Po-Ching Lin]

I find broctl is unable to install the following line in broctl.cfg because of the parentheses.

BroArgs = -C -f "(src net 192.168.0.0/24 and dst port 25) or (src port 25 and dst net 192.168.0.0/24)"

The error message is as follows:

[BroControl] > check
bro scripts failed.
    /usr/local/bro/share/broctl/scripts/broctl-config.sh: line 69: syntax error near unexpected token `('
    /usr/local/bro/share/broctl/scripts/broctl-config.sh: line 69: `broargs="-C -f "(src net 192.168.0.0/24 and dst port 25) or (src port 25 and dst net 192.168.0.0/24)""'

What should I do if I want to use parentheses in the BPF string? Thanks.
