RE: SnortSnarf Install Document

["Slighter, Tim" <tslighter () itc nrcs usda gov>]

No document but the install is quite simple
 
tar/gunzip it to /usr/local and I "mv" the snortsnarf directory to "snarf"
then "cd" to "snarf" and then "TimeModules" and issue "perl Makefile.PL" and
then "make" and "make test" and "make install".  Now the your modules are in
place,
 
find your apache htdocs location and create a few subdirectories under
there;
 
mkdir /usr/local/apache/htdocs/snort
mkdir /usr/local/apache/htdocs/snort/alert
mkdir /usr/local/apache/htdocs/snort/portscan
 
 
first test out the snortsnarf.pl perl script from the "snarf" directory as
follows:
 
perl snortsnarf.pl /var/log/snort/alert -d
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/snort/alert
 
perl snortsnarf.pl /var/log/snort/portscan.log -d
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/snort/portscan
 
If this works as anticipated,  your last step is to create a sh script and
"cron" it to run however often you wish.

Subject: [Snort-users] SnortSnarf Install Document


 
First a disclaimer, I mean absolutely no disrespect to the kind folks who
went to all the trouble of creating the different modules and programs
involved with SnortSnarf.  But trying to follow the many different,
sometimes incomplete, documents for each of the individual dependencies is
quite maddening.  Has anyone put together a smooth flowing install doc?  Or
am I just inept? (always a possibility)
 
Thanks
