Per the docs...

IMPORTANT:
The 'yes/no' argument does not specify whether the configuration option
itself is on or off, only the alerting functionality.

Hi,

I’m looking at tuning the http_inspect pre-processor, specifically some of
the false positives I get from this.

My question is, if you set some of these options:

u_encode no
bare_byte no
iis_unicode no
double_decode no

Will that affect the ability for snort to process some of the http specific
rules in the ruleset?  Does it affect the normalization of http traffic, or
just turn off these specific alerts?
