Is your snort sensor hung off a switch or hub ?  if it's off a switch
then you won't see anything destined to other boxes unless you port
mirror.

   Ok here is my scenario I have a box outside the firewall with a deny all

snort rules I have multiple ip address that I want snort to monitor. 

 var HOME_NET [111.111.111.112,111.111.111.113,111.111.111.114]


The rest of the configuration is pretty much default for snort-1.8p1-0. Other 
than location of rules and conf file.

These other machines have ipchains as well with a deny all approach. If I 
scan any of those boxes snort does not pick it up. Should snort pick up these 
other machines or do I have to change my ichains so they can see eachother?






 Thanks in advance
