I looked through the FAQs and the archives and didn't see this address any
where.  I can specify the logging directory on the command line with the
-l <dir> option, but how do I override the default logging directory
within the snort.conf file?

Cary

You might try this:

From SnortUsersManual.pdf:

"2.1.3 Config

Many configuration and command line options of Snort can be specified
in the configuration file.

Format:
config <directive>[: <value> ]

<snip>

logdir - Set the logdir (snort -l). Example: config logdir: /var/log/snort

<snip>



This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for your help and quick
response!

Cary

HTH..
