Log Monitor

Whatches the Snort IDS log files and pops up GTK alerts is something is fishy.

Usage

Install the requirements: Snort IDS, Ruby, RubyGems, rubyGTK and libnotify:

$ apt-get install snort
$ apt-get install ruby rubygems
$ apt-get install libinotify-ruby libgtk2-ruby libnotify-dev
$ gem install libnotify

Run the unittests:

$ ruby unittest/ts_allTheTests.rb

And run the program:

$ ruby main.rb

Notes

This code has not been updates since May 2011 and it is less likely that it will ever be.

A python port exists on the porting-python branch.

Tested under Debian 6.0 clean install with latest updates.
