from the loghog.conf file reguarding the ignore_host file entries:

###################################################################
#
# Ignore File:
#
# This is simply the file that you deposit ips/classes that you don't wish to block.
# Its quite important that you make sure this file is correct so you don't go about DOSing 
# yourself!  It should be noted that this does not disable alerting as it is informative to
# know if something is happening on one of your hosts so you just don't want to cut it off.
###################################################################


if i was you id just try tweaking the snort alerts so that they arent set off by the servers that you dont want to be 
notified about.

Subject: [Snort-users] loghog question


Not sure if this is an appropriate list for a loghog 
question, but I can't
find any online resources for issues with loghog (other than 
e-mailing the
author).

I'm running Snort 1.8.7 on Mandrake Linux 9.0 with loghog 0.1.

I have several entries in my loghog "ignore_hosts" file.  One node is
giving me constant false alarms, and I'm trying to get loghog to quit
sending me e-mails about it.  However, even with the entry in 
ignore_hosts,
I'm still getting the e-mails.  I've killed and restarted 
loghog, but I'm
still getting those darn e-mails.  Any suggestions from other 
loghog users?
