    Hello,

    I'm seeing quite a lot of alerts on my box, as people keep poking around
    the server, looking for holes. I don not want to shut those messages
    down, as I want to get a feeling for what people are trying.
    On the other hand, this flood keeps me from seeing *serious* alerts, for
    example from handcrafted rules, that indicate with high propability an
    intrusion.

    So what I really want are alert-priorities. Are there any plans for
    this?

    My workaround right now is to code this into the Message (something like
    msg:"CRITICAL: directory listing") and search in Acid for "CRITICAL".
    But I want to see those alarms on the first glance -- not after doing a
    time consuming search.

    bye, ju
