Greetings,
I have Snort running on a Ultra 5 with Solaris 8. I bring up interfaces
qfe2 and qfe3 without IP addresses being assigned on differnet VLANs, and
have Snort listen on those interfaces using separate commands:
snort -D -c conf.file -l /var/log/snort/qfe2 -i qfe2
snort -D -c conf.file -l /var/log/snort/qfe3 -i qfe3
When I trigger scans on those VLANs, qfe2 logs the results, but qfe3 does
nothing. If I kill the snort running on qfe3, and just do a tcpdump -i
qfe3, and run tthe scans again, I see the traffic.
So am I doing something completely wrong, or am I trying to do something
that is not possible.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

No changes were made from 104 to 105 in MySQL... All that's necessary is to
change vseq from 104 to 105 in the 'schema' table.

Ok, must have been asleep at the switch.
How do I upgrade an existing mysql schema (104) to 105?
I would prefer to keep the existing data.

You said there was no outbound syn packet.. but in this case I suspect there would be an *inbound* syn...
This would appear that someone tried to connect to a webserver on your machine, and your machine responded with a reset since it was not running one.
This is extraordinarily common due to the number of web-server infecting worms floating around.
typical expected sequence to generate this:
someone:someport -> you:80 syn
you:80 -> someone:someport rst - "get lost buddy."
or possibly:
someone_running_portscaners:someport -> you:80 (no flags, fake fin/ack, or a xmas tree)
you:80 -> someone:someport rst - "get lost buddy."
Of course what kinds of traffic would generate a RST instead of an ICMP error message will vary with how you have iptables configured.

on my system, i entered: --with-mysql=/usr/libexec/
that is the location of my mysql daemon, not the header file. i think if you do a: ./configure --help | less
you will see some switches that ask for header file locations and they have a different format. i know i confused this when i built php for acid, which had the same switch, but with a different usage. go figure or rather go configure. ;-)

Snort will detect these attacks if YOU configure it to. This would be done by defining the right *NET statements and configuring rules that catch TCP SYN or UDP packets to any ports OTHER then legit. publicly accessible ports on your network. Log it into a database, use ACID and a little event correlation and tadah - stealth portscan capture...!
Remember, a computer is just a high speed idiot :)
> 2. the logging facility of snort ie > snort -dev -l /var/log/snort --doesn't see any rule file , so > will this log 'ALL' the packets on the network completely.?
From what I see in the help, yes. Let's go through it shall we?
-d Dump the Application Layer -e Display the second layer header info -v Be verbose -l <ld> Log to directory <ld>
Now, I'm on a train, so I can't really test it, but I'm pretty sure that
A) it will be verbose and display all the packets (including application and second layer info) to STDOUT B) it will also log it all into the <ld> directory.
> 3. I have found that in NIDS mode ie > snort -deD -l /var/log/snort -c /etc/snort.conf > logs only part of complete data.ie maybe the current > packet.What if i want to log "everything " if attack is found. > i have gone thru the log-documents.plz clear these points.
Ehheh, well, for a start, take a look at the stream4 preprocessor. Having said that, I'm pretty sure it doesn't log the whole stream. I haven't looked into this in more depth, but a quick 'grep stream4' in the snort-1.8.4 dir revealed
* added new config keyword to stream4, "log_flushed_streams", which causes all buffered packets in the stream reassembler for that session to be logged in the event of an event on that stream (must be used in conjunction with spo_log_tcpdump)
So, I guess that'll sort it...! If it doesn't, then use tcpdump in conjunction with it and throw man-hours at it...! :)
HTH,
Scott

Ok, lets check this a bit more. If you use a 'snort -vade -i qfe2' and run scans, do you see the traffic? Where does this traffic come from? A third machine? If just run the qfe3 instance (as above), does it log? Running a 'snort -vade -i qfe3' while scanning--Does that show any data?

It all depends. :) 'Not Possible' just means someone else hasn't done it yet. ;-)

It's very possible that someone is synflooding someone else using your IP as the spoofed src.
