I am experiencing an issue where the advanced filter is not working.

I have modified the advanced filter for the built-in rule located in Security Applications>Group Policy>User Environment Warnings.  The rule is still configured for the "userenv" source and "warning" for the event type.  I have gone into advanced and set the filters as:
Event ID  Not equal to  1517 OR
Event ID  Not equal to  1524

However, I am continuing to receive notifications from this rule with the filtered out Event ID's.  I am running version 8.1.0 bld. 20080318.

There are no Vista or 2008 boxes being scanned, all are 2003 so the rule is specified using "Event ID" and not "EventID".

Please enlighten me as to what I am doing wrong or if there is a problem with this build, thanks.

I believe the issue is related to the priority these rules are applied. Can you please try this:

  1. Locate Configuration -> Event Processing Rules
  2. Create a new folder
  3. Right click the newly created folder.  Choose 'Move Up'
  4. Repeat step 3 until the folder is at the top of the list (above noise reduction)
  5. Create a new rule set, and then a new rule within this folder
  6. Once the new rule is created, choose configuration -> Event Sources
  7. Right click on the server name or group being monitored and add this new ruleset to the event processing rules.
Does this solve the trouble for you?
