The problem I am having is that some packets (usually summary events),
in the response tab, there is no option to view the data, but in the
configured response tab, "Capture 256 bytes of applicable data" has a
green check. Also, when I edit a policy to turn on extended logging,
let's say 10 packets for an alert, I cannot view that packet data,
even though in the other tab, it says it is logging it. For the
packets that will display data, it's great, and I love how it
integrates with Ethereal.

I have been trialling Intrushield and it logs and displays packet info
just fine, have you installed Ethereal and pointed Intrushield to it's
location? Also Intrushield tells you what sig it has fired on in the
alert viewer.......

We have intrushield deployed here, and I am disappointed. The ability
to create user-defined signatures is very poor. There is no way to
make a signature to look at all ports and protocols, so with a UDS,
you must specify a protocol for it to look at. There is no
command-line access to write signatures, so you must use their Java
GUI. There is no way to import sigs from other vendors, such as snort,
and the rule flexibilty is just not there. The built-in signatures is
a closed-set, so you do not know what IntruShield's signatures are
firing on. You also cannot filter out traffic. There are filters
available, but they only work on signature based detection. Anomaly
detection will still fire on the filtered traffic. I have yet to get
the logging capability to work. You can set it to log X packets, but
it won't display them when you view alerts.
Hope this helps,
Chris

I have been evaluating Intrushield and ISS but am still unsure on which
route to take. Does anyone have compelling info on why Intrushield is
better or vice-versa? Any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
