Hi guys,

I'm a pretty new user to Linux, and I want to set up some sort of protection
for my box. I have snort installed and I'm looking for rulesets - the
problem I have is this:

When I run snort, it runs in a terminal. How exactly do I set snort to just
run in the background, collecting unusual packets? I'm sure there must be a
way.

Also, is Hogwash a suitable tool to use instead of/as well as snort? I need
something that is relatively simple but also effective.

Regards,

Thomas Madhavan
