You don't actually need a separate message DLL. You can just include the .mc
file into the exe itself and point the Registry key to the EXE.

My original 1.7 port of snort that contained service code did this.

As others have correctly stated, the cause of this warning is because no
message DLL is associated/registered with the event source.  Yes, I was
aware of this behaviour.  I just haven't yet had an opportunity to build
the
DLL and incorporate it into the existing snort source code.  There seem to
be enough comments about this behaviour that I'll make this task a higher
priority.

Joe,

I'm not sure if it's a bug, but it's pretty minor if it is. How about it
Chris, can this be fixed. I know I have seen several messages in regards
to
this particular logging quirk.

Cheers...

But the reason the event message is not formatted is because there is no
message resource DLL registered for the SnortService event source.  It
wouldn't take much to fix this (just use the message compiler & change the
install to add this to the registry).  Is this not considered a bug?
