Tripwire's pretty easy to learn.. it's just setting it up. You need to know
what's installed in your system and _where_ else you get config errors.. and
stuffs like that..
PS : I've been reminded a couple of times already not to top-post..
top post = posting on top of another's post without any reference to what
you're answering to..
no offense

No apology necessary, but I am embarrassed to say that when I discovered
the 2000 firewall and wanted to block all internet access, I blocked ALL
access. At least it was only setting the computer up.
As for Tripwire, I have that on my list of things to learn. At least now
I know what it is.
