Ok, I'll start using this in the interim until I can figure out the
auto_whitelisting.

Makes sense, I'll dig into that a little deeper to see if I can figure out
specifically what's triggering it.  Assuming I do find something is it better
to try and modify the rule directly or to come up w/ some sort of "counter"
rule?



Also regarding the auto_whitelist function, how can I verify it is working? 
I've been looking through the logs and don't really see anything there.  The
messages themselves don't seem to indicate anything.  The auto-whitelist file
in the SA dir seems to be growing, but while auto-whitelist.mutex is tracking
the date/time of the non .mutex file it hasn't changed size since I started
using the whitelist (about a week now).  

Thanks
