Description Gustaf Ankarloo 2008-09-01 11:44:47 UTC
fwsnort parses the rules files included in the Snort intrusion detection system and builds an equivalent iptables ruleset for as many rules as possible. fwsnort utilizes the Netfilter string match module (together with a custom patch that adds a --hex-string option to the iptables user space code which is now integrated with iptables) to detect application level attacks.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. donwload and install fwsnort
2.

A much cleaner ebuild. 
Thanks to those in #gentoo-sunrise who helped clean it up.

Ebuild for fwsnort-1.1

New ebuild for fwsnort-1.1.
This is now in Sunrise as are the two Perl dependencies.
Comment 8 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2014-12-14 14:00:04 UTC
The ebuild in sunrise was outdated and unmaintained, so it got removed.
