#Alert ver 1.2.1 

FILES:

README		This document that you are reading now.
alert.sh	The actual alert script that does all the work.
		This is also your User Defined Alert.
install.sh	Installation script that sets everything up.
test.sh         Test script to verify your configuration when you are 
		all done.


INSTALLATION:
Installation is very simple.  First, move all four of these files to
the directory you want to install the IDS Alert script to.  One 
idea is /home/fwadmin/alert_1.2.1.  All logging will happen in that 
local directory (log files are small, less then 1MB).  Then run the 
installation script install.sh and follow the instructions.  
Thats it!  


WHATS NEW:
- VER 1.2
Streamlined code, easier to read and add your own modules, ie. functions().
Optional automatic blocking, block the source that is scanning you.
- VER 1.2.1
Cleaned up $message and $send in PHASE 4 function.
Added this under GPL license.
