OpenBSD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Throw in a wireless card.

It's free.  If you have some old hardware laying around (doesn't take
much).....  Makes for the perfect system!

Subject: Any Intrusion Detection Appliances handle wired and wireless
networks?


Hi there,
Does anyone know of any combined solutions for and appliance that will
passively monitor the wired network while monitoring for wireless
activity as well?  The reason I'm asking is that I have one budget and
if I can combine both technologies in one box (snort and airsnort-based)
I could get approval.

I need the wireless monitoring in our data-centers along with the IDS so
that if any rogues connect to the network they will be picked up and
send an alert back to the SEC-admins.

Cheers,
