I've found LaBrea (http://www.hackbusters.net) to be quite amusing.

Your results are guaranteed (no false positives), as you're tarpitting traffic that really shouldn't be there (i.e. connections to hosts that don't exist).

I'll e-mail you a URL privately if you want to see LaBrea in action. Since I'm in an educational institution, my tarpit is quite busy and the report file is rather large (e.g. my little class C gets ~7 million port 80 scans per day).

I'm curious what you guys are using for intrusion detection?

I've looked a little bit at things such as snort and prelude. Or is there a syntax for PF? What are your recomendations? Which one is easiest to configure or more accurate?
