Nagios vs Zabbix and snort vs OSSEC for a new server
| Posted by sandys, 07-24-2010, 01:57 PM |
| hi,
This is the first time I'm doing everything on my own, so my questions are posed to understand ease-of-use first and features second.
1. Nagios vs Zabbix for monitoring
2. snort vs OSSEC for IDS
NOTE: I dont understand the deal with downloading new rules - should they affect which software I choose.
thanks in advance !

| Snort is a NIDS, OSSEC is a HIDS two different beasts.

| i hate nagios. Zabbix is blah. I use cacti.
Snort for your network
OSSEC you install on the server... OSSEC is cool but i dont like the active response.
