Nessus will do that, he just mentioned that if your curently reciving ICMP
alerts then you know Snort is runing. You also look might look at
metasploit.

Thank you Joel
Sure, I will try BASE. About the ICMP, ya thats true but i want to
study more about how this rules get fired and how attacks are made, so
i was looking for more attacks for my understanding and learning about
the network security. so if you have more info regarding where i can
download those codes i will more than helpful.
best regards

Fossil,

#1 -- Don't use ACID, use BASE.  http://base.secureideas.net
#2 -- You can use something like nessus to make Snort alert to make
sure it's generating alerts, however, if you already receiving ICMP
alerts, then you know it working properly.
