Hi, 

      I wrote a few days ago, but it seems that nobody knew what I asked, or
my mail was totally unnoticed :-)

      So, to say it in another way: how can I *totally* disable
spp_portscan? Don't tell me that I just comment it in snort.conf, because
that's how it is now and it's still reporting portscans. I can show you my
snort.conf if you don't believe me :-)

      I want to disable spp_portscan because it's giving false positives of
portscanning from the host's IPs. I've tried portscan-ignorehosts, but it
didn't work (I tried both with variables, defined at the beginning of the
snort.conf file, and with IP addresses directly as arguments to
portscan-ignorehosts, with its corresponding /32 mask).

      Come on, tell me something :-) Thanks in advance.
