If you've ever struggled with the manual setup of a Snort-based IDS on Windows, I’ve just released an updated automated installers over at Winsnort.com.

The WinIDS v2.4 (IIS/Apache2 MySQL/PostgreSQL Builds) handles the entire setup on a fresh OS install—from pulling the necessary support files to configuring the database and web server. It’s designed to get you from a clean desktop to a functioning IDS console in about 15 minutes.

You can find the scripts and the configuration guide here: Winsnort.com
