I would most likely say that these are information signatures.  They
aren't false positive, but if you do alot of drive/network shares and
stuff like that, you're going to see that kind of thing.

Subject: [Snort-users] netbios rules question



Hi All 
I had a question regarding netbios rules. Lately I have been receiving a
lot of the alerts as shown below where A.A.A.A and B.B.B.B are all
internal hosts to my network. In addition B.B.B.B is the IP address of
our domain controller.  Is this merely false positiive or something i
should be concerned about. How do I go abt troubleshooting further to
see what exactly is happenig. Any help will be appreciated 

Thanks 
Ravi
