I love sguil. It makes it easy to get the information you most often want, and possible to get the rest - and it scales to millions of events. --- snort-users-request@lists.sourceforge.net wrote:

I run both BASE and commercial Aanval. Aanval is a
very good console for
the price($99/sensor) and has much more reporting
features and such.
I agree w/the observations of sguil that it can be a
pain to install.

Subject: [Snort-users] consensus on BASE
Is the consensus that BASE is the best web front-end
for snort out there
(and I mean free, open source stuff)? What are
people's experiences
with sguil (which I realize is not web based).
thanks,

Subject: [Snort-users] Snort In-Line on a Linux host
running as a Bridge
All,
I was wondering if anyone has any documentation on
using Snort In-Line
on a Linux host acting as a bridge? I have never
done this before
(always use ip forwarding) but the project I am on
is requiring that I
bridge.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, I
would appreciate it.
Thx,
Sam
