Greetings,

I have the following rule added to my local.rules file.  The rule it
replaces is disabled in disabledsids.conf.  The rule is firing
incorrectly, though.  It alerts on the first IP address, which is
188.172.212.76.  If I understand he rule correctly, it should not be
alerting on this IP address.

alert tcp $HOME_NET any ->
[!188.172.212.76,!208.87.232.0/21,$EXTERNAL_NET] $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"ET

There are more IP address ranges that are ! out, but I have omitted
them.  I copied the rule directly from the pulledpork file and just
added the first IP address to it.  I still have alerts pouring in when
anything goes to that first IP address.

Thank you,

-Clint
