the tutorials linked to from the SEC page do a pretty good job of covering them. short version: desc is used to track this rule inside SEC, if it has variables in it, each value is treated separately (when considering things like threshold counts, etc). 'odd' things happen if you have multiple rules in a file that have the same desc value. contexts are flags that can be referred to by other rules. A context can have a lifetime, after which it is removed, and it can have an action to take when the lifetime expires. contexts can be modified by other rules. These are deceptively simple. Used properly they provide a HUGE amount of power. David Lang ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got visibility?
