try throttle 01:00 the man page shows an example using this format.


Thank you Todd, we have tried [because we´ve RTFM ;)] but it doesn´t work,
same error message.
We have tried many variants and look into the perl scripts and packages with
no results, so if anybody has an idea, please tell me.

Hello list!

This is a bit out of the scope of this list, but i couldn?t 
find help in
swatch lists and i know that many snorters use swatch.

I?m having problems using the throttle option. 
This option (as i understand) makes swatch send only 1 
alert when more than
1 similar alerts happen between
a given time lapse, but i receive an error and it doesn?t work.

Error:
Date::Calc::Delta_DHMS(): not a valid time at 
/root/.swatch_script.4390 line
227.

These are some lines near 227 in the swach_script.4390:
if (exists $Msg_Rec{$key} and defined $Msg_Rec{$key}->{ymdhms}) {
    my $passed = 1;
    $Msg_Rec{$key}->{count}++;
    if ($ymdhms[1] > $Msg_Rec{$key}->{ymdhms}[1]) { $ymdhms[0]--; }
    my @delta_dhms = 
Delta_DHMS(@{$Msg_Rec{$key}->{ymdhms}}, @ymdhms);  //
line 227
    foreach my $i (0..$#min_dhms_delta) {
      $passed = 0 if ($delta_dhms[$i] < $min_dhms_delta[$i]);
      last unless ($delta_dhms[$i] == $min_dhms_delta[$i]);
    }

This is my conf file:
watchfor /\[\*\*\]/ 
         echo
         mail=mte@xxxx,subject=--- Alertas de Snort! --- 
         mail=pep@xxxx,subject=--- Alertas de Snort! --- 
throttle 00:01:00 


Any help will be appreciated. TIA!
