snort disk: bsd or linux

[Holger.Woehle () arcor net]

Hello,
i want to build up a sensor appliance based on a diskette with linux or some
"free" bsd and snort with mysql databse-logging and maybe ipsec support.
The bad interface doesn't have an ip-stack the good interface have one. Through
the good-one goes the logging and alerting information...
I want to sniff a mediocre used 100Mbit ethernet segment (about 50% traffic)
with a ruleset of about 50 rules and spade turned on!
Additional i want the good-interface to spawn a ipsec tunnel to the central
database/syslog machine.
For performance reasons is there a differnce between linux and bsd ?

cu
Holgi
