utils/install_snort.sh

Installing Snort on a Debian based system was a bit finnicky for me, so I wrote my install notes here.

Use at your own risk in a VM that you have snapshotted recently.

utils/server.py

Simple Python script that runs an HTTP server on 127.0.0.1:12345 and accepts POST requests.

Handy for generating test PCAPs.
