I would like to start using snort IDS. I have a linux box all built and
hardened (per much of the this list's guidance!) but now would like to
know how to *truly* secure my second network card that will have snort
listening on. What are a few things I should bear in mind when "locking
down" this card? What makes the card "stealth?"

I look forward to your responses. Thanks again.
