Joe,

You recommended that I run snort without the -D (Daemon-mode)
option.  I tried this, ran nmap, alerts fired but weren't sent
to syslog.  This is the behavior that I want, so your idea worked.

So, it seems that running snort in Daemon mode enables syslog
logging via the LOCAL facility.  I imagine that this is by design.


By design only errors and warnings are logged via syslog if it's running
in daemon mode.

What do you recommend I try next? Bug report?  Enhancement Request?


Well, if you chould show us relevant snippets of the configuration file,
so we could reproduce 'the bug', it would be helpful indeed. :)
