hi. i'm looking for some explanation of libpcap.  i'm no coder therefore
source code won't help me.  i've searched in google and found way too much
reference (65,000 links!) for libpcap.

basically i just want to find out if setting up a firewall (ipfilter) on the
same system as where a NIDS is installed would affect the job of the NIDS.
i'm using snort for my NIDS.
