Re: Rule update question

FYI, in the cvs snapshot 
(http://oinkmaster.sourceforge.net/oinkmaster-snapshot.tar.gz) you can now 
use "localsid <sid>" to make Oinkmaster keep the local copy of specified 
rules. I still think this feature should not be used unless in special cases 
though (more docs about this will be in the 1.1 release).

Silly question, I just drew a blank as I once did this....

How can I set oinkmaster when coming to a rule that was modified
manually to skip it, but I don't want it disabled. Say I modified the
rule from :

Example:
Alert icmp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET
To
Alert icmp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> ![x.x.x.x}

You can't really do that (for the reasons recently discussed here), but you
could do a modifysid for it:
modifysid <sid> "-> \$HOME_NET" | "-> ![foo]"
