Hi Alexander,
Thanks for your reply.
I am looking to setup a basic IDS system, where
attempts to connect to certain ports are logged in the usual places. At
the moment, I am logging connections to telnet ports, then I run a script every
night to report on connection attempts.
Hardware specs shouldn't be a problem, server has
only just been purchased and runs dual xeon cpus, scsi drives etc. I guess
by your suggestions, the only time performance might be an issue, is during an
attack (portscan etc), which would probably hinder performance
anyway.
Any other ideas?
Cheers,
Ben
