John, great!!! here is a chance for possible help in more areas than just this specific ruleset issue... i asked Rob some time ago if he could write a script that would check logs and report if a certain rule was effective or not by itself vrs if other rules hit with it and maybe that rule was not needed or could be lowered etc etc and if other rules hit with it, then we would see how effective that rule was and why and when etc etc i am guessing that you folks already have these tools or similar tools or help? although i could probably come up with general logic flow and an algo for this, i would not be able to hard codify and implement at this time... yeah yeah, i know and im still working with PERL for dummies and will get past the intro some time soon - rh
