Wanted to let you all know, and sorry that it's on short notice, but I will
be speaking tonight at the CSRA (Augusta, Georgia and surrounding area)
Snort Users Group.

The meeting is being held in downtown Augusta, Georgia, so if you are the
area and would like to attend, I plan to start around 6:30-6:45, several of
us will probably go to dinner afterwards.  All are invited.

If you are interested in coming, like I said, I know it's short notice,
email me for directions.  (The location has asked that their address isn't
posted.)  Thanks!

Joel Esler

There is also Snorby (google will help you there), I have been playing with
it a bit lately.. it's still BETA / Brand new..

you can also always go the route of syslog etc...

 Hi Scott,

ACID should not be used anymore.  BASE is definitely more current.

A brand new web front-end called Snorby (http://www.snorby.org/) just
appeared.  It's still in Beta and may not be ready for production use.

If you don't require a web front-end, I would recommend looking at Sguil (
http://sguil.sourceforge.net/).  It can be installed very quickly and
easily using NSMnow (http://www.securixlive.com/nsmnow/index.php).  If
you'd like to try Sguil from a LiveCD environment, please take a look at my
Security Onion LiveCD (http://securityonion.blogspot.com/).

Thanks,
Doug Burks

 Hello,

            I am looking to setup a new SNORT IDS.  I set one up a while
back with ACID as my UI, I liked it very much but now I?m looking to build a
brand new one and it would seem that many things have changed sense I did
this last.  Most notably, it looks like the ACID project has been dropped.
Is ACID still a good web based UI for SNORT or is there a better one these
days?  I?d also appreciate your opinion on BASE which looks pretty much like
ACID but seems to be more current.



-Scott

It's the biggest web gui there is for Snort. With over 20k users.

Anyone have a feeling for how many events it will handle in the
database?  Last time I looked (a long time ago) it would go very soggy
if I tried to keep more than a weeks worth of alerts in the DB.   My
current (Placid *) system works fine with about 6 million events.  But
has very limited functionality.

I've seen systems with 14 million events on a very powerful machine.

I just got the same problem as jlay <jlay () slave-tothe-box net>.  I've had
v2.8.4.1 running just fine for a while, but today I updated the rules (both
from Snort and from Emerging threats) and performed an 'apt-get upgrade' and
suddenly I'm getting this error.  I don't have either "preprocessor dcerpc2"
or " preprocessor dcerpc_server: default" in my snort.conf and the entry for
dce/rpc is as follows:

# Per Step #2, set the following to load the dcerpc preprocessor
# dynamicpreprocessor file <full path to libsf_dcerpc_preproc.so>
# or use commandline option
# --dynamic-preprocessor-lib <full path to libsf_dcerpc_preproc.so>

preprocessor dcerpc: \
   autodetect \
   max_frag_size 3000 \
   memcap 100000

So it appears to be enabled.

However, I looked for libsf_dcerpc_preproc.so, but that file is not
present.  Do I need to create one?  The README.dcerpc file does not say how
to format such a file.

OTOH, did I screw up something updating the rules?

Thanks.

Craig Bowser

I can't find "preprocessor dcerpc_server: default" in snort.conf to
disable, but I think it's because my snort.conf is old.  I'm going to try
and upgrade my snort.conf to the latest version (v2.8.4.1).  If you haven't
upgraded your snort.conf in a while I may suggest you try the same.

       Do I need to update snort?  Thanks.


No, but you do need to enable the dce/rpc2 preprocesor in your snort.conf
