Hi All, new to the group, new to Ossec.  I have set up an Ossec server 
(Linux) and several windows clients.  I would like to get alerts for 
specific windows event log events, and have set up a dummy event.  It 
works, I get an alert.  The problem I'm having is I get the alert 
continuously. (the best I've achieved is to throttle the alerts back to one 
every hour).   I'd like (possibly at the server end?) to filter these 
alerts so that once I've seen them, I don't get more alerts.  I can't 
delete event log data, so am wondering if there's a way to do this with ids 
and date/time stamps?.

E.g., in my client ossec.config, I have the following rule (which is aimed 
at a fake event for testing)::
<localfile>
    <location>Application</location>
    <log_format>eventchannel</log_format>
    <query>Event/Application[EventID=1]</query>
 </localfile>

How would I filter the alert related to this rule out once I was ready to 
do so?  Is there a way to wild card dates, so that any alerts for this ID 
and before a certain date or date range from "today" don't get sent?  I 
assume this is probably something I should have been able to find in the 
documentation or in this group's threads.....

Hoping to get a "how to link"....maybe that touches on doing this with 
rules and decoders?

Thx!
