I'm new to the list, and using Snort 1.9.0 (Build 209). I'm logging to a binary file in /var/log/snort_dumps, and later replaying them into my DB by hand using -r flag. I'm getting ready to make this somewhat automated, and have hit a minor snag. I use the -L flag with snort to indicate I wish the binary file be named based on the cheezy variable you see displayed below: [snippet from my shell script] STAMP=`/bin/date +%m%d%y-%H` /usr/sbin/snort -b -L /var/log/snort_dumps/$STAMP -i eth0 -c \ /etc/snort/snort.conf This is suiting my purposes quite well, with one exception. I get file names such as this: 010403-09.1041693435 Any recommendations on getting rid of the additional ".1041693435" portion of the file name?
Funny. I'm running 1.8.6 and my default tracefile naming convention is "snort-MMdd () hhmm log". That's without using the '-L' switch. When you do, you should just specify the filename, not the path. Give the path with the '-l' switch. ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
