Hi all, Are there any possibilities that I could run a script (bash, perl) when any rule is matched. For example, I have some distinct rule and want to get an alert email each time any connection threshold is crossed on it from a singe IP. Say I want one IP only have 1 http connection to a web service in my server, if it goes 2 pf would update a table or run a external script that would alert me about that IP. This is just a concept and I am not doing it in real. Just wanted to know if there are any possibilities that I could run external scripts or invoke them when a rule is matched. I would appreciate any hints or references. Regards, -- Gaurav Ghimire System Administrator - Systems (R&D) Subisu Cablenet (P.)
