Hi..
I want to set up a LAN(LAN1) which will have a victim machine and a second system with SNORT running on it. The second system with SNORT should act as a gateway between the LAN1 and LAN2. LAN2 will have a system which will attack the victim machine.
For the second machine to be a gateway with SNORT running on it, I just have to enable IP FORWARDING with two NIC ..... Is it right or wrong???
I have like very lilttle knowledge about linux and networking. Someone told me that the whole setup is wrong. If its wrong then plz correct me else plz guide me in the above setup.

Thanks,
Swetha.
