Is it possible that you are not modifying the correct/running snort.conf
file?

Frank,

I did and the result is the same.  Is this right Sig
Id?  I checked the SQL database and sig. id is 32 and
I changed the result is the same too.  

Anybody can help me out and I am just too upset with
this as too many alerts are generating.

Thanks,

Peter

Are generating too many alerts. I have attempted
to
suppress these alerts in my snort.conf file like
the
following:
suppress gen_id 122, sig_id 27:
suppress gen_id 122, sig_id 19:
suppress gen_id 119, sig_id 4:

But those alerts are still generating a lot as
before.
I do not know why these alerts can not be
surppressed?

Did you notice Snort giving errors on startup?
Remove the colon, that
might help.

Regards,
Frank
