To ignore ALL ICMP traffic from host <foo> using a pass rule:

        pass icmp <foo> any -> $HOME_NET any

And you _MUST_ start snort with the '-o' parameter for the pass rule to work
correctly.


where is the place to put this rule .. ? inside of snort.conf file .. or in other file .. apart .. ?

Thanx ..

Donnie,
You should be able to put it into the snort.conf file or as part of your
snort startup command/script

Startup option
-m <umask>

Where do I place "config umask:xxx"?  I placed the command "umask 0026" in
.bash_profile for "sec", but it did not work.

I have created a user and group both named "sec". In the snort startup script I created the variable SNORT_UID=sec and have placed snort
.... -u
$SNORT_UID in the configuration so snort is running as the owner/group sec/sec. This works fine but the IPAddr directories created under
/var/log/snort/* have the permissions 600 and my users part of the "sec"
group do not have permissions to the log information. Did I forget to
set
the umask for snort somewhere? How can I make the /var/log/snort/some.ip.addr.directory permissions 660?
config umask: XXX
