Hey Ron,

I am having the same problem as you.  As soon as I switched to pass alert
log, I am getting undefined icmp errors.  Interestingly enough these were
known icmp alerts L3retriever and so on.

I am still a piglet with snort ( dont like using newbie )
Anyone have any other suggestions ?

Subject: [Snort-users] Rule Order


Hi,

Has anyone else changed the rule order under 2.0?

When I upgraded to 2.0, I started having problems with ICMP alerts when
my rule order was set to 'pass alert log'. Actually, any setting other
than default caused problems. ICMP alerts happen, they just skip the
normal rule and trigger the "Undefined Code" rule.

TIA,
