Dite is a distributed intrusion detection system for Linux 2.4.x based architectures. It consists of two programs: (1) Dite periodically gets the host system status (kernel & modules info, tcp/udp offered services, CRC for specified directory subtrees) and send it to Cocito, waiting for acknowledgement. (2) Cocito receives host system status from Dite and compares it wih a previously stored one. On comparison error, it generates a syslog warning and replies to Dite with a negative acknowledgement. Source code written in C. Comments in english. Required libraries: * crypto * pthread * zlib Please read manpages: nroff man/* -man | more /* from the source root directory */
