Try

var DNS_SERVERS [a.b.c.d/32]

or if you want to put in more, ie. a host and a class c network

var DNS_SERVERS [a.b.c.d/32,w.x.y.z/24]

HTH,

Sorry,

This problem is driving me crazy. Any help? Is my conf setting wrong
with respect to the portscan?

Please help, thanks.

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been asked before. I've read the manual
but still am not
sure what I am doing wrong.

I get portscan alerts from snort when I access the web:

[**] [100:1:1] spp_portscan: PORTSCAN DETECTED from a.b.c.d
(THRESHOLD 5 connections exceeded in 6 seconds) [**]
10/17-17:14:52.252947

/etc/snort/snort.conf:

var DNS_SERVERS a.b.c.d

preprocessor portscan: $HOME_NET 4 3 portscan.log
(i've also tried commenting out the above line, same effect)

preprocessor portscan-ignorehosts: $DNS_SERVERS


How do I prevent get snort to not report portscans from my
machine or
any network which I specify?

Thanks.

Eric
