Michael,
Try writing a pass rule and/orBPF filter for the NFS traffic between the
hosts.  This will allow snort to ignore the NFS traffic.

BPF filters are probably more efficient in your case.

Thank you.

I had tried some things with these, apparently misconfigured them, and
when they did not `work', I concluded that I did not know what I was
doing.  That is when I solicited this list.

Now that you mention this, I re-visited it, and after several logic
gaffs with the BPF syntax, I now have working BPF filters.  In fact,
these filters do exactly as I require, and nothing more.

Thank you, for your patience and your guidance.
