Short:  Not with any certainty.

Longer:  For this you need something like Ntop, but that actually
_understands_ what the protocol is supposed to "look, act, and feel."  IOW,
you'd have to build a protocol decoder for each type of protocol that you
wanted to look for.  Ntop might be close, but I don't know of anything that
does exactly that.


log tcp any any -> $HOME_NET !110 -> (msg:"FTP login USER"; content:"USER "; ) log tcp any any -> $HOME_NET !110 -> (msg:"FTP login PASS"; content:"PASS "; )

Should be able to dectect incoming ftp logins..
!110 to disregard al that nice email popping...
disregarding ircd ports for USER is also nice if your network hosts a ircd..

Magnus
