RE: Thoughts on internal vs. external IDS rulesets

Common exploits - this is where the problem lies.

With Microsoft servers, just using them causes a raft of false positives
and I've lost too much sleep trying to cope with pass rules.  Developers
accessing servers to add code or people using Exchange cause such a
blizzard of activity, I'm beginning to get /really/ frustrated.

But I will keep an eye on portscans, thanks for reminding me.

Besides what you mentioned I also look for the common 
exploits and am trying to set up 
portscan detection from servers being used by students.
