Good golly, miss molly...

At least someone was paying attention.

<snip the question, 'cause there wasn't really one>

Let's chop up this mail a bit. There's no notion of what wins because
it's a logical AND of the portions in the rule header and in the rule
options list.

The rule:

"Check TCP traffic from $EXTERNAL_NET with any source port to HOME_NET
port 32770 or above and look for Foo flags with a content of
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO02010186A1 starting 5 bytes into the packet"

rpc.rules:alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET 32770: (msg:"RPC
rstatd query"; flags:A+; content:"|00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 00 01 86
A1|";offset:5; reference:arachnids,9;classtype:attempted-recon;
sid:1278;  rev:3;)
<snip>

arf..

Oh. Yeah. That *semicolon* after "32770".. heh.. yeah..

*That* semicolon. heh.. hmm..


Thanks, Chris.

That's why you get paid the big bucks (I hope)!
