Re: FW: Snort & DoS

[dandantheitman <dandantheitman () gmail com>]

I run my snort boxen with iptables, and i find that running iptables /w 'tar pit' is great with dealing with DoS 
attacks, however I don't really subscribe to an IPS dealing /w DoS as a whole, as it takes it away from the IPS's 
primary function.
