now i have a problem couse every packet is logged (and logs are huge) even if it's only about 1k big and it is product of outside scan of server not actual connection to it. Is there anyway to log only first and last package from 1 ip and only if data transfer is bigger then let's say 5k? Or maybe anyother way to log that connections? I also tryed with chaosreader & tcpdump but this method is too much cpu & ram consuming and i also tried with iptable but again with same problem (every package is logged). I relay wanna use snort because i can use mysql & acid for statistic...
I propose you two solutions: 1) Use just iptables (maybe this doesn't suit you because you want acid for the stats, storing the logs in mysql it's not a problem using ULOGD) and the connection tracking system. Use some general rules to accept the ESTABLISHED and RELATED traffic in the chains you want to use and then use a rule with --state NEW to log only the initial connections. 2) Use a mixed solution. You need almost the same iptables rules I have indicated above, but you can use snort-inline and the QUEUE feature of iptables to pass the packets to snort-inline. Then use the rules you have in snort-inline to just log the packets to mysql and then use Acid to see the results.
