[Snort-sigs] sigs to catch response traffic

Hi, does stream4 collect both directions of a flow?  I.e. is it possible to 
have a set of signatures that tags a flow (standard http attack) and then 
watched for a 200 response from the web server.

I assume that the answer is no otherwise we would be diong this as a matter of 
routine.

It long ago got to the stage where I ignore the flood of altert generated by 
people poking at our web servers.  The fact that some poked at our web server 
is of no interest at all.  The fact that someone poked at the web server and 
the server did not return an error is of interest.

Perhaps this could be built into a preprocessor that returns the status on an 
http connections.
