Re: sfportscan - open ports

[hchlai () netscape net (Hin)]

Thanks Jeremy... I believe I'll wait for 2.4 to come out. I can't find the patch that you indicated on the web, but any 
assistance would be appreciated.
I'm just curious that since sfportscan is a preprocessor, I would think that threshold.conf will not work on it. Data 
seems to flow from physical link -> packet capture kernel module or pcap-> snort decoder -> snort preprocessor -> snort 
signature file.  I thought threshold.conf will only interact after preprocessor pass the info to signature file. Am I 
correct?
Many thanks!
