    Hi List,

    I'd like to ask you to recommend some IDS I could test. Our company is
    about 100-120 PCs large at the
    moment, that could increase to up to 400 in the near future. I am
    currently trying eTrust IDS v1.5 but it reports
    many false alarms, also it just reports the half of the traffic as 'other
    protocols' so I really can't get much useful
    information from that.
    Is Snort's software any good? It is free, and that's just nice. I was
    thinking to try it one of these days when I'll
    have a bit of spare time. Should I bother with the Windows version or I
    should just put it on a Unix machine?

    Any other tips, software that can do traffic logging/analysis/intrusion
    detection?

    Thanks.

    PS: Please, CC me the answers as I don't have much time to read mails
    usually so I might delete it along with
            the many other mailing list mails if I'm hurrying.

    Greetings,
    Endre Szekely-Bencedi
