hi ya

> I need ur views on SNORT tool for intrusion detection

prevent/minimize their possible exploits first...
        - tighten your security ???
        - take a minute to run nmap and close off all ports listed
          and turn off all daemons listed
        - upgrade to latest/greatest version/patches of the sw 
        - fix the file system permissions and passwd files

snort just tells you that you've been scanned or attempted ??
        - run snort, portsentry
        - logcheck, swatch etc for log file monitoring
 
i think its more important to know that they got in ???
        - run tripwire, aide, etc
