   Yes I am connected through a switch. I am not familiar with how to port 
mirror. Could you give me some more info on that or possibly a website.



Thanks for the reply

   Ok here is my scenario I have a box outside the firewall with a deny
all ipchians approach running snort. If I scan that box snort picks it
up. In my 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
