After the latest PHP/phpBB related worms I would like to use snort-inline to prevent problems in the future. I believe this is a must these days. And snort-inline is great, for what I've been reading (a lot, I think). I'm running RHEL 3 and I've been using APF and BFD (www.rfxnetworks.com). I've been also using Snort in IDS mode with ACID for some time now. Now, I've been able to install the kernel-source package, iptables-devel, libnet 1.0.2a and snort 2.3.0RC2 compiled with the --enable-inline option. Tested and it works! However, it is still running in IDS mode. I downloaded the rc.firewall script from honeynet.org and I've been trying to understand how do I need to change it to suit my needs. I do not need to do NAT nor act as Bridge. My computer is connected to just one interface (eth0), the net. Also, I still need to use APF, since it's easier to customize than iptables. TBH, I feel somehow lost when trying to figure out iptables seriously. Probably I need to setup the ip_queue chains to allow snort-inline do its own job, but I also need to keep all the iptable settings APF builds when it's started. ...or maybe I can't use APF+BFD anymore when using snort-inline? Please, can anyone help me? Thanks a lot in advance ...and happy new year! :-) |
