Can someone tell me the difference between Nagios and Snort?
They monitor entirely different things. Nagios monitors the availability of services on a network, whereas Snort monitors potential threats to network security.
Which one does the best job in monitoring Networks?
Both and neither. I run both of them on our network, as they perform different functions. Both of them require some tuning and housekeeping, but perform their respective functions pretty well. best wishes. Gideon.
