hello Chris ... thank you, i just try to setup linux without 
a ip adress.
Lets see how it works. I am a "newbie" in ids and linux and 
so it takes a
while to get all running. Oliver

Hello all
I have a general question about setting up a snort sensor 
systems. When I
place the sensor in front of the firewall, it will make 
this system very
vunerable against attacks. Although I would like to analyze 
the data in
realtime. How can i setup such a system without 
compromising my security
issues? Would it make sense to setup a system with snort, firewall,
database
and analyze engine or is it more usefull to transfer the 
data (and how?)
to
a internal system for analyzing ? 

You should have 2 network interfaces.  One is in promiscuous mode with
no ip on the sensor interface and a management interface that is
attached to whereever you will analyze events from.
