on NIDS/NIPS tuning

Subject: on NIDS/NIPS tuning

All,

I was thinking about some issues with IDS alerts (their volume, etc) and
realized I could use some help from the list. It might also be a  fun
discussion item.

So, here it is: how many folks who buy/download a NIDS/NIPS actually tune
it? Long time ago when I was asking this question the previous time, I was
scared to learn that lots of people do not tune their NIDSs. Is it any
better now?

Best,
