[Snort-users] simple snort pass

Hello all. I've read the documentation but I can't get this simple pass
rule to work. this rule is located in local.rules, which is included and
being executed.

the pass rule (on one line, and with no x's) is as follows:

pass udp X.X.186.250 any -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"argus/stats doing their
thing.";ip_proto:esp;rev:1;)

I use ./snort -oDc ../etc/snort.conf to run the mother and it still shows
the traffic from X.X.186.250 to my $home_net-- which is defined
properly as such: [X.X.184.0/24,X.X.186.0/24,10.1.1.0/24]

here is the alert detail:

#0-(1-19) SNMP request udp 2004-01-11 12:13:02 X.X.186.250:33376
X.X.184.21:161 UDP

186.250 has legitamate snmp requests so I want them silenced!

any suggestions?

-Peter
