Tripwire seems to be a filesystem monitor - I wouldn't necessarily run it or
feel more secure running it, but others may disagree...
I run portsentry, snort, squid and iptables (along with poptop and freeswan
VPN servers)

Hi All,

I previously used Redhat releases for my firewall boxes, and they 
install iptables and tripwire by default. I have switched to SuSE 8.2 
which doesn't install tripwire by default. My question is:

Do you think it's worthwhile to install and configure tripwire on an 
iptables firewall box?

I can't think of a better forum to get a straight opinion on this and I 
think this topic is of interest to most of the list members. However I 
understand this thread is off topic and will gladly take it off list or 
move it to another forum if you can suggest one.

Jeff
