Subject: [Snort-users] Help with Rules

To anyone who can help,

I am a bit confused on writing rules. I am trying to write, at least=20
what I think a pretty simple rule. Basically we have all the traffic=20
filtered out, meaning any traffic that is not going to an IP address=20
will be sent to the snort box. With this we are going to determine if=20
the user is having say spy-ware or virus related problems so we can=20
notify them. I am running into trouble getting my rules to work, or they

work so well, it just fills the database up to an unmanageable level.

My question is that right now it is logging what appears to be any=20
packet sent by the user. I would like to get a handful of that=20
information, for example, have 1 log for every 100 packets. Is this=20
possible? If so, what options do I need to use?

Thanks,
Kevin
