Hi, I'm currently working towards deploying a live streaming server on a linux host. The host will be public and physically located at a datacenter. It will have 3 [or at most 4] ports open. One will be for ssh [i'll be using private keys for user validation], the second will be for the streaming server[plan to use port 8000] and the last set will be for the source of the live stream. I'm still working on the rule sets for iptables. My default policy will be to drop all packets and allow only required traffic. That said, is installing and configuring Snort or an additional security system [eg: Tripwire..etc] required/necessary. warm regards, ukeme noah -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
