Can you use tcpdump?  I don't know if it's possible to use it's output in
Snort or not, but tcpdump reports EVERYTHING (within the parameters you
specify)....

Does anyone know if there is a way to have snort monitor an external NIC so
that it responds BEFORE the iptables firewall rules? So far, when running on
the same box I can only get it to respond to scans on ports that are open
and make it through the firewall.
