Snort is a complete package. However, there are some libraries that are required to make snort useful such as pcap and pcre. Depending on how you use Snort and what your objectives are, there are many add-ons that add value depending on what you are trying to do. Snort is just an IDS / IPS at the end of the day. If you want an analyst console or remediation etc. this is when you need to start looking at add-ons. Here are some popular additions: flop (unified) barnyard (unified) syslog (log shipping / sim integration) swatch (log watching) base (analysys) squil (analysys) oinkmaster (rules) This is not a comprehensive list (just off the top of my head), but this should give you some areas to research. I'm sure others will be happy to chime in as to what add-ons they like to use. Cheers, Justin On 8/22/07, James Lay <jlay@slave-tothe-box.net> wrote:
Just what I needed...thank you :) James
Hey all! As my post about diagnosing the mysql server has gone away messages enlightened me on that I need barnyard, now I'm curious...what other packages make Snort a complete package? I have snort, mysql, apache, php and recently added oinkmaster, but what else? Barnyard...and? Just curious.
