Subject: [Snort-users] snort and firewall all in one machine

Hi,

I am currently running the firewall and snort within the same machine; 
and snort is having its detections before firewall blocks the packets.  
I would like to use snort to test if my firewall actually blocks the 
packets launched by attackers.  Would anyone give me some advice on how 
I could configure IDS to do its detections after the firewall blocks the 
packets by its rules?

Thanks in advance,
Peggy

Subject: [Snort-users] logging to a remote database with mudpit

Hi,

I try to put data from a host to a mysql-database on a remote one with
mudpit
but I get the following error message:

        Host 'hostname' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL Server
        error initializing ".../mp_acid_out.so": retrying unrecognized
parameter "server"

On the remote-host I have given the grants:

        grant INSERT,SELECT on snort.* to snort identified by 'password';
        flush privileges;

On the local host I use (mudpit.conf):

        spool "/var/log/snort" {
                lock = "mysql"
                delete_processed
                user="root"
                output=".../mp_acid_out.so", "server <remote server ip>,
user snort, password <password>, database snort, interface eth1"
        }

I don't know what's going wrong.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Steffen

You need to have snort listening on your inside interface.  It uses
libpcap so it see's traffic at the same time as the firewall.

I have already set up snort to monitor the external and internal 
interfaces.  I have already opened my firewall and I already have the 
ips for int and ext interfaces under homenet, however, I could only see 
the packets coming in from the ext. interface, nothing was seen in the 
internal interface.  Please advice.

Thanks,

The rule path is correct, Snort says 1991 rules when it starts up...
=0D
=
I think that is something about the net configuration, even if I dont kno=
w what could be :(

If I use snort like a sniffer, snort -dev -i eth1 I=
l see lot and lot and lot of traffics!  eth1 is the interface 

WITHOUT=
 IP address connected to the switch. eth0 is connected to the inside netw=
ork 

All the traffic from the others subnets is sent to the IDS by the=
 switch... 

Snort works well when it was connected locally, it stops t=
o work when I connect the IDS to the switch, 

but the sensor sees the =
traffica but report only the rules I've posted,

Matteo

Is the rul=
es path correct? /etc/snort/rules/xxxxx.rules , It seems the
only rule=
s processing are the one statically assigned in the .conf file.
I woul=
d cleanup/rework the conf file a bit.

In your snort startup script=
, are you listening on the correct
interface? Try doing this:

/=
path/to/snort -i eth1 (then your other switches , like path to config
=
file and such). What is the output?

I would like to use snort to test if my firewall actually blocks the 
packets launched by attackers.  Would anyone give me some advice on how I 
could configure IDS to do its detections after the firewall blocks the 
packets by its rules?

You can get some of what you want by forcing the IDS to sniff the inside 
interface instead of the outside. Packets from the outside that were 
blocked will never make it to the inside.

However, there's no way for snort to detect "post firewall".. snort uses 
libpcap. Libpcap is fundamentally very low-level and picks up packets at a 
very low level off the ethernet driver, long before the TCP/IP stack gets them.

Subject: [Snort-users] display/log IPv6 traffic ?

Hi,

I startet snort in a IPv6 network. The summary screen, displayed at exiting
snort display the correct number of IPv6 pakets but none of them are logged
in logfiles or displayed at the console (with -v).

Is it not possible to display/log IPv6 traffic with snort ?


I used the latest version 2.1.2.

regards

  Markus
