Re: Windows IDS

[Eric Brown <ericbrow () ziplip com>]

I'm fairly new to the field, but the only IDS I was ever able to make work was EagleX from 
http://www.engagesecurity.com/products/eaglex/ .  It is a windows port of Snort, along with apache and mysql for 
reporting.  You may have to read a little on apache and mysql to get it working properly, but I found it to be a great 
learning tool.
