1)   Can anyone recommend a good program or utility (and where to d/l it 
from) that can detect things like port scans, and attempts to hack into a 
linux box ?
I;ve heard of packet sniffers, but do they actually detect, or just capture 
massive amounts of data ?

2)   also what basic methods can one take to secure a simple linux box 
being used with Samba and Apache (i dont need major security right now, 
just basic firewall and other simple protection...

thanks in advance

Seth
