You could run OSSEC in a VM on the same server. On Mar 20, 2013, at 12:19 PM, "René Kåbis" <[email protected]> wrote:
Actually, I have a very distinct need for an OSSEC server on Windows. I run my own Iron, but all I have right now is a single Windows 2008 R2 server in a colo facility. I do NOT have the cash to put a second machine in that facility. Now, how the bloody hell am I supposed to run OSSEC on my Win2K3R2 machine without an OSSEC server??? How do I obtain an "authentication key" without ever adding a second machine to that colo facility??? I don't care about keeping both versions in sync. Some places are a windows-only shop, or have needs like mine (no ability to add a Linux server of any kind). Windows is that other major market share out there, and you cannot ASSume that everyone will have the wherewithal to add a Linux server just to run a client app on a single Windows server. I would like to secure my server. I just cannot afford a second server just to do the authentication key part of it. Oh, well. The hope of having an effective and useful intrusion detection system for my Windows server was fun while it lasted.
