Making Snort Rules More "Sensitive"

["Rich Lichvar" <rlichvar () knowledgeresourcecenter com>]

1. I'm a Snort (and pretty much Linux/Unix) newbie. Just getting back into
this after several months hiatus.

2. We got dinged in a security audit last year about our IDS rules (Snort)
not being "sensitive enough" and were told we needed to raise (lower?) the
sensitivity thresholds. Okay, if some one can tell me where to start looking
to accomplish this, I'd really appreciate the help.
