I'm sure this is a very open-ended question so ill try to be as specific as i can. i have searched the documents (ie User Manual, FAQ and install guides) as well as Google searched and message board searched and all i can find on install requirements is that " it depends". i am a home user and would like to have a system that runs like its supposed to. I am not opposed to building the machine its intended to run on, in fact that is what i intend to do. I have a single 1.5 meg DSL connection hopefully upgrading to cable in the future so depending on what ever package they offer could go up to 20 megs. I know connection speeds have little to do with hardware as a general whole. I am thinking of using at a minimum 2.0 Ghz AMD opteron processor with about 2 GB RAM and 74 GB Raptor HD. I hope to have the SQL database on another computer so as to take most of the load off my sensor. I don't intend to have more then 10 users ever on this network and am wondering if this would be a good machine to use? any suggestions would be very helpful. I have never used and have not installed snort as of yet due to lack of working computers (4) lying around my house at the moment. Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but I cant seem to find a straight forward answer as to what a minimal install would use. -- Sincerely, Chris KeyID: 0x348DC808 Keyserver: pool.sks-keyservers.net
