Jacob,

 

Grab the docs from the Snortsnarf install as it has instructions on
installing Perl, and a download link.

Yeah it is a real big over kill for one sensor, but there is the possibility
that I might throw more then one sensor on the network.  I am monitoring a
voice over IP system with my current thing but might add up to 3-4 more
sensors on it depending on if I am successful with my testing.  

 

You said there is an easy way to put perl on, care to enlighten me :-)  BTW
you have been EXTREMELY helpful and I am very grateful for the help that you
have given me thus far :-)

 

Thank you,

Jacob,

 

If you are only managing one sensor then configuring snortcenter is (IMHO)
an overkill.

 

You must run Perl, and it's not real complicated to setup.

I am just curious if other people out there are running everything on
windows.  I just got my sensor and database to work together and log stuff
and all is well with the world.  I am now trying to install snortcenter v
1.0 to manage my sensor(s) but when I look at the documentation (off their
website) it is asking me to run a perl script.  I don't have a perl
interpreter, and would rather not use perl if I can help it.  

 

Is there a way to set up the agent for 1.0 on a windows machine without
using perl?  Documentation, etc?  I would greatly appreciate some guidance
in this as I am a snort/snortcenter n00b. :-)

 

Thank you,

 

Jacob Snow
