Sorry, but it's against the forum rules to post homework questions:

Feel free to post the code that you've already put together and maybe someone can help you get it working.

Best of luck with your project.

You could probably take a good look at the coding on an already existing intrusion detection system and get an idea from that on how you want to go about creating one of your own. Nobody here will write the code for you since it's your homework.

Note that I'm locking this thread under the no homework questions rule.
