yea, that's what i've been doing, but it's a network signal i send
out about once a fortnight, so i got cron to check up on iptables
logs every hour, whereas i needed a response fairly quickly (but
felt using cron more regularly was a bad policy for a scarce signal).
then someone told me snort should be able to do that instead. & if
that worked i was hoping to expand it to immediatly blocking access
to portscanners etc. like in portsentry

Yo, you could run an cron job with a shell script that parses the log
once every minute and looks for a pattern then executes a shell command
if it finds it........  Just an idea tho
