Has anyone any experience in combining firewalls with IDS? Several commercial Intrusion Detection systems can generate new firewall rules on the fly to block the possible intrusion. Has anyone used this and has had good or bad experience with it?

As well, are there any systems to combine the firewall logging with IDS logging to generate more complete summaries of an attack? Since a firewall may block part of the intruders attack but not block the part that the IDS sees, we need both sets of logs to analyse the nature of the attack.
