Jacob,
Wouldn't a possible solution be to install Snort on each server then have them all report to a central database?
From your wording, it almost sounds like you're trying to provide protection to individual servers using a NIDS installed on each system. You may be better off using a HIDS like Samhain to provide individual system protection with NIDS at a few network choke-points, and centralize all of the logging using something like Prelude.

We have several servers that all need Snort.
How could we solve this in an intelligent way?
