i attempted to use this in my snort.conf file:

preprocessor stream4: detect_scans,noalerts

but it is still logging all of those EVASIVE RST alerts and driving me nuts, i still want to use stream4 for the 
portscan logging, is there any way to do this?

thanks

ive been reading through the past posts and ive seen how to 
turn off the stream4 preprocessor, however i want to have it 
on to detect portscans, but i want to turn off the EVASIVE 
RST alerts that are being generated.

--begin snip snort.conf---

preprocessor stream4: detect_scans

---end snip snort.conf---


if i was to change the above current entry to this:

preprocessor stream4: detect_scans,noalerts

would that still log the portscans and nothing else or no? i 
am using snort version 1.8.7-db (Build 128)
