Re: Alert OR syslog?

In your command line, your doing binary logging (-b), full logging (-A full) and syslog (-s).
I haven't tried todo both syslog and FULL (waste of time?).

When I run it with the following command snort seems to run fine:

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -I -A full -s blame_cmg -i rl0

So give that a try, im not sure why someone wants 3 logging mechanisms, but hey!

Cheers!

(sorry cmg for the syslog part :-)) <grin>

I am wondering why I cannot get both an alert log written AND syslogging to occur.

My command line invocation:
snort -b -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf -I -A full -l /logs/UA/snort -s -i qfe0

Pertinent snort.conf(?):
output alert_syslog: LOG_ALERT

Is there something too obvious here?
Thanks!
