If you are using the preprocessor.rules, you can simply disable the alerting rule.

You know, I could be wrong, but my understanding is that these must be turned off by tuning the preprocessor config 
in the snort.conf, not in disablesid.conf, pulledpork, or by commenting out the rule. They can be suppressed using 
threshold.conf, of course.

Am I wrong?

Use the disablesid.conf in pulledpork to turn off this particular rule.

Yes I am using pp. That's what is puzzling me. From what the other user
said, its built in.

i guess i will try to recompile then negate it with snort command.

just a few thoughts. thanks

i am trying to turn off this alert in preproc_rules/preprocessor.rules:

#alert ( msg: "SSH_EVENT_PROTOMISMATCH"; sid: 4; gid: 128; rev: 1;
metadata: rule-type preproc, service ssh ;
classtype:non-standard-protocol;)

i commented it out, still it shows up in base.

which leads to another logical question: 

how can one find out where a rule lives in the first place.
i figured out from base if i mouse over the snort portion it states:
128-4 which i figured you can grep 128 goto the file, 4 entries down, find
it that way.

1. is there another easier way to find them?

2. lastly, how can i turn it off 128-4 for good.

thanks
