Default RE: [Snort-users] CyberKit 2.2 Ping, its driven me Nuts..

Hi,

This seems very interesting.
Would you please post details about how have you done it?
Eventually the cron script to check these specific alerts (WELCHIA/NACHI =
and MSBLASTER) and how you send emails to the antivirus team.

Thank you in advance,
Catalin.

I use a custom cron script, that checks every minute for CyberKit 2.2 =
alerts originating from within our Class B network. It gets the MAC =
address of the offending PC through 'nbtscan', and sends popup warning =
messages to the offender via 'smbclient -M'. It further logs the =
offending PC's NetBIOS name, IP, MAC, and sends out a text page via =
'mailto', so the antivirus team can take care of the infected PC.

External Cyberkit 2.2 alerts are being ignored. Incoming ports 135 and =
tftp are of course blocked at the firewall to prevent infection from the =
outside.
