Re: Tagging doesn't set Sig name?

:: I've got a rule to capture the next 10 packets after a suspect SYN:
:: 
:: alert tcp $DMZ any  -> !$VALID_REMOTE_NETWORKS any msg:"DMZ host
:: communicating to an unsupported service";flags:S;tag: session,
:: 10,packets;classtype:successful-admin;)

:: However (;-), the 10 logged packets are of "(34)Unknown Sig Name" instead of
:: "DMZ hostcommunicating to an unsupported service" type.

I think you need to assign your rule a valid sid keyword.  DB queries are 
done based on the sid, I believe.
