How to decide/find gen-id?

[Simon Blixt <blixten_496 () hotmail com>]

Hi,
I'm setting up an rate_filter for my rule. But I'm stuck in choosing the gen-id.
Is it so simple that all *.rules have the gen-id 1? Or should I look in gen-msg.map for a gen-id to choose?
How do I know which to choose in gen-msg.map if that's the situation?

Thanks,
Blixten
