Syslog on W2K

[Steven Williams <Steven.Williams () computershare com au>]

Hi,
 
I am using snort 1.8.6 on W2K.
 
I wish to log to the mysql database, but also log to a syslog server using
the commands below;
 
output alert_syslog: LOG_AUTH LOG_ALERT host=X.X.X.X
output database: alert, mysql, user=username dbname=database
sensor_name=sensor1 password=password host=X.X.X.X
 
When I run snort, I get a warning message stating "Unrecognized syslog
facility/priority: host=X.X.X.X"
 
Has anyone successfully got snort to syslog to a remote syslog server? If
so, can you let me know how you did it?
 
Also, has anyone got anything like Swatch on a W32 machine to report from
Syslog Files?
 
Thanks
 
Steve
