Alert or log?

[francisv () dagupan com]

Hi,

I've been using Snort and ACID for a couple of months now and I have no
problems with it so far. A couple of hours ago, I decided to add barnyard to
my current setup. What do you suggest that I put on the ACID DB, alert or
log? What's the basic difference? Also, I learned that ACID's portscan graph
wouldn't work unless you're logging alerts and it also doesn't understand
the output from the portscan2 preprocessor.
