If you are running snort just to protect a couple of servers you could first kill the rules that don't apply to your os. Kill the MS rules if you are running on *NIX or vice versus. No reason to alarm an IIS Index Server attack if you don't have an IIS box.

It's running in alert mode. I have the switch set to broadcast the ports for several key servers. I need some hints on how the edit down the traffic. Any help would be appreciated, I am reading everything I can but I just got snort running yesterday, and we were hacked overnight so I need some help in getting the logs down to a manageable size. _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
