Their plan is to add solaris support in their 2.2 release. I'm not sure how close they are to that being ready, though. Regards, Matt Thomas
-----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net [mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net] On Behalf Of John Creegan Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2003 7:28 AM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] System hardening I've got the basic snort and reporting systems up and running (snort, ACID, MySQL) and I'm ready to turn my attention to protecting/hardening my system (Solaris 8 on SPARC) before I do any more with snort (barnyard, oinkmaster, etc.) I'm looking at a tool (yassp) for going beyond the system hardening described in the docs. I can't find any mention of it (so far) in the archives, FAQ or the recommended three books. Yassp seems a bit old. It may work well for Solaris 8, but it appears there's been no recent support for it. Does anyone think it's worth hardening a system so much? I've already got tripwire running but that, to me, is a reactive approach. I'd rather prevent someone from changing my system files than to know they already did it. I'm aware that unless I proceed carefully I can make the system useless for its intended purpose, running snort.
