Wally,

Go into Internet Information Services in the Administrative Tools. You
should see the name of your server and a "+" beside that, click the "+"
and open IIS up. In there you should see FTP Sites, and Web Sites. Click
on the "+" next to the Web Sites and it will open up showing all the
websites you have. Right click on the Default Web Site and select
properties. That will pop up a window called Default Web Site
Properties. At that point select the Directory Security tab. Next you
will see one option in the middle of that window with a combination lock
showing, ad you will want to select the edit button. A window called "IP
Address and Domain Name Restrictions" will pop up. In there you will
find two options:

Granted Access: By Default all computers will be granted access

Denied Access: Except those listed below

You will want to make sure to click the radio button for "Denied Access"
and select the Add button to allow any IP Address in that you choose. If
you leave blank, then nobody gets in. I believe you don't need to add
localhost, but if you can't get to the Acid site from your browser on
localhost then go back and add 127.0.0.1 to the "except those listed
below" list.

Hey Michael, I'd like to get that info from you, if you don't mind
regarding
absolute for IIS.

Thanks.

William,

You can restrict all IP's if you are using IIS. This is not documented
in my walk thru for Snort on Acid using IIS here:

http://www.silicondefense.com/techsupport/winsnortacid-iis_1.8.7.htm

You can deny all except localhost if you're using Apache. This is
documented in my online walk thru for Snort on Acid using Apache here:


http://www.silicondefense.com/techsupport/winsnortacid-apache_1.8.7.htm

Both of those are absolute, nobody gets in from the outside.

I can give you an absolute for IIS if you want that?

Afternoon Michael -

Let me commend you on the instruction set. It really helped during my
install of Snort on
Acid.

One question. Is there an issue with the username and password combo
snort / snort? Not
being too terribly familiar with mysql, is there a way to ensure that
no
one can connect
to the database except from the localhost or console? Or would you
simply recommend
removing the snort user and creating my own?

Thanks for your thoughts,

William
