Better yet, disable the IP'd interface on your snort system and then run
TCPDUMP on the stealth interface and see if it is picking up any type of
traffic.

I'm too tired to check right now but if this hub
question isn't in the FAQ can someone put it in?  It
hits the list about once every 3 weeks.

like this one?

hint: a auto-sensing, or auto-bridging, hubs aren't
really pure hubs, they 
behave as if there was a switch between the 10mbit
and the 100mbit part. 
Pretty much any "hub" that has both 10 and 100mbit
support and can support 
both speeds at the same time MUST have some
switching behavior, otherwise 
you have a 10mbit hub.

That said, what kinds of NICs are you using? What
speeds are each of the 
NICs operating at (10? 100?)


As an example
  I'm using that same model of hub you linked. The
box surfing the net has 
an intel 10/100 card operating at 100mbit, the
linksys router operates at 
100mbit, the snort box has an old 3com 10mbit NIC in
it.

 Everything is plugged into one or more
Linksys hubs; no switches are invloved.
