Dragon is a great IDS system. It uses a text based signature system so you
can load up new sigs right after they are published or make your own. I
use it on a very busy network and it works great. It runs faster on
FreeBSD than anything else I've seen. You can use it in remote locations
and send to a central server. 

Shouldn't you be using Shadow from the Navy ;)?
