can Snort be installed on VPS?
- by jack
Hi Linux Admins
I want the maximum security for my linux vps. I found many tutorials round the net but it doesn't cover the Snort. Only those like portentry, logsentry, tripwire and so on.
So I'm beginning to think that Snort is not appropriate for a linux host. I think it's suitable only as a proxy/middle-man that checks traffic before passing to acutual targets.
I'd like to whether Snort can be installed on VPS which serves typical servers like web/mail.
Can Snort be in complict with OSSEC which I think it doesn't check the traffic but the log files only for Intrusion Detection/Anomaly?
Thank you.
