Simple question for you all...but it evades me.  I'm trying to setup a
box that will monitor a network, but be totally invisible to that
network, but it needs an IP since it will be using some programs like
BigBrother and whatnot.  So...my question is...if I use IPFW to block,
for example, all ports and effectively totally blocking TCP/IP, will
Snort still be able to capture TCP/IP packets?  Has anyone tried/done
this?

Thanks & Happy Holidays,
--Brian
