[FW-1] Reject on rule 997 ???

["Kinsey, Brian A." <Brian.Kinsey@FW1-NOSPAMLITHONIA.COM>]

I have some rejects showing up in my log viewer on rule 997. This is quite
interesting to me as we don't have nearly that many rules in our rulebase.

I found some info on phoneboy and Checkpoint's KB on rule 998 rejects, but
nothing on 997. The 998 rejects there all had something to do with Exchange,
but the machines that are showing up in my log are not any kind of mail
servers.

I have noticed this from a web server in one DMZ to a database server in
another DMZ as well as from External DNS servers in a DMZ and Internet IP
addresses.

Has anyone seen this before or know what may cause this behavior?
