Re: snort-1.8.7 and alert file

OK.  I missed that one, thanks.

Now, since my command-line "-N" is overriding my snort.conf's "output log_unified", I'm getting no logging at all.

How do I either specify spo_unified on the command-line, or specify the "-N" in snort.conf?

(Strangely, I'm getting 30% packet loss now.....interesting)



Regards,

Brad T.

Is there any for me to disable the writing of this file?  I'm sure it would
do wonders for my packet loss problem.

Yeppers.

From the man page:

[...]

     -N   Turn off packet logging.  The program  still  generates
          alerts normally.
