Installing a new SNORT box

I have spent some time doing research about installing a snort box onto our Windows LAN. Because I'm really a Linux newbie I don't want to have the snort box itself hacked into, I'm trying to isolate only those daemons/services that I need to have for SNORT. I have decided to installed snort on a PC-clone running RedHat Linux 7.2. I have read several articles on Linux-Sec.net, and they have given me some good starting ideas, but I'm not certain of which services SNORT needs to run. Assuming I was going to have an installation of SNORT 1.8.3 that used all the bells and whistles, what needs to run? Also, what kind of hardware requirements do I need for this machine? I have been given a PentiumII 233mhz machine with 128mb RAM and a 2GB hard drive to use, but I'm sure if this is enough. I'm sure questions like this have been asked before, so If someone could point me to a site with appropriate answers rather than re-answering questions that would be great. Cheers. _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
