Re: Snort to monitor several servers

[Dominik Schmid <dominik_schmid () gmx ch>]

Hi

If you want an application to controll the alerts for all those servers, 
take a look at snortfocus - snortfocus.org.
It's a mysql extension of the snort database.

With the php-gui, you can join servers to user groups which can control 
the alerts and set filters.
