Re: My Webservers Are Showing Up In My Alerts

[matt <mkettler () evi-inc com>]

If I'm reading you right, you've fixed one problem, but still have a 
problem where it looks like your squid server is attacking other people's 
networks.

Have you tried modifying EXTERNAL_NET to not be "any" but instead be 
"!$HOME_NET" or "!$HTTP_SERVERS". If you're only interested in inbound 
attacks I'd highly recommend it as it will speed snort up, and kill this 
kind of false alert.
