Patrick, Thanks for the direction and the information I found the information and I am looking into it to figure it out, as you know sometimes is hard to find what you are looking for, but the topics discussed seems to be addressing my issue. Thanks, Arthur -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:snort-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net]On Behalf Of Patrick Harper Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 5:40 AM To: 'Arthur Chilipweli'; snort-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [Snort-users] Snort config and setup Need you help - Please! Only if you have a true hub, just because it says hub do not assume that it is. Search the archives for true hub and real hub for a lot more info. This has been discussed here many times. -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:snort-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Arthur Chilipweli Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 3:27 AM To: snort-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Snort-users] Snort config and setup Need you help - Please! Hi, Please Someone may be able to guide me in the right direction ( I am a new bee on snort and Unix) I am not sure where I am going wrong I have Installed Snort on a 1.3 Mhz PC with 512 RAM, and is working fine (logging traffic towards the box and the NIC where is installed), but my problem I have is the only traffic I can see and is getting logged is only towards the box I have snort installed, brief setup I have is like this I have three machines Win 2000, Win Adv serve 2003 and Fedora core 3(Snort is installed) all have 1 NIC in them, all Connected to a hub and the hub is connected to my Router and to my Cable Modem, I thought (but may be I am wrong) that snort will be able to log all traffic on my tiny network as long as I define my HOM_NET Correct. below is the short snort.conf file: var HOME_NET 192.168.1.0/24 # Set up the external network addresses as well. A good start may be "any" var EXTERNAL_NET any # var EXTERNAL_NET !$HOME_NET # Configure your server lists. This allows snort to only look for attacks to # systems that have a service up. Why look for HTTP attacks if you are not # running a web server? This allows quick filtering based on IP addresses # These configurations MUST follow the same configuration scheme as defined # above for $HOME_NET. # List of DNS servers on your network var DNS_SERVERS [68.13.16.25,68.13.16.30] # List of SMTP servers on your network var SMTP_SERVERS [192.168.1.4] # List of web servers on your network var HTTP_SERVERS [192.168.1.4,192.168.1.100] # List of sql servers on your network var SQL_SERVERS $HOME_NET # List of telnet servers on your network var TELNET_SERVERS $HOME_NET # List of snmp servers on your network # var SNMP_SERVERS $HOME_NET So with this setup is there any thing I am missing or I have a wrong understanding on how snort setup should be? please understand I am a new bee, so I really need your education trying to get to learn Unix. Will really appreciate. Thanks in advance, Arthur A.
