Helllo Everybody.

I have snort running on win2k and it is working fine so far.I had placed it
in DMZ to monitor the malicious traffic passing through firewall and Now i
want to put another snort win2k system in Public zone i.e in between my
router and firewall so i can know which traffic is actually hitting the
outside interface of my firewall.
My concern is : Since my snort system ( win2k ) is gonna be on public IP
address , what will happen if somebody runs a Denial of service attack on my
snort system itself.
How can i be sure that my snort system running on win2k is safe from DOS
attack ?

Thanks
KS
