This topic was really hot last month. And there was a side comment when doing a resp: rst_all
on http protocols due to the nature that it sends 5 packets. From what I remember, sending a
R to an http request will sometimes fail as http proto is not RESET friendly.

What I did to test flexresp: I opened a web site in my browser from my
desktop and made sure the site came up properly. Then I 
created a test rule
using "resp: rst_all" to block access to the IP address to 
that site. Then I
started Snort to use that rule and went back to my browser 
and hit refresh.
You'll know the rule is working when your browser appears to 
hang (the site
never refreshes and the progress bar at the bottom of the 
browser crawls
very slowly....the site never comes up no matter how long you 
wait). If you
stop Snort and hit refresh again, the site will refresh properly.

Hi Ronneil,

Thanks.  I will take note of that.

How about to test if this works or not?  where to
look? is it on log files or on my mysql.

Thanks again.

Just one note, I had bad experience with
resp:rst_all;.
It should be resp: rst_all;. Take note of the space.

It's weird but works.

Well,

You could enable an ftp server on your snort box.
Set up your flexresp rules to include the address
of your snort box.
Start your snort running.
Call your friends and ask them to pull down files
from your snort box.
Ask your friends to let you know how it went.

Later,

Hi Guys,

I need your HELP!, I just recently recompiled my
snort
with-mysql and flexresp.

Now my question is how do I know that flexresp
is
working, where do I look? that indicates the
flexresp
is working.

I use the resp:rst_all; in some of snort rules.

Your quick response is highly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.
