I'm just going to take a guess here that you haven't tried this combination
yet...
Try adding command line "-s" and also adding "output alert_syslog: LOG_AUTH
LOG_ALERT" to the snort.conf.

Subject: [Snort-users] Upgrade, 1.8.6->2.0.0rc5 - new version won't alert to
syslog?


[...snip...]

Command line with which I'm running snort (out of the same
/etc/init.d/snort
file for both versions):

} /usr/site/snort/bin/snort -o -b -D -m 022 -A fast -i qfe1 -s -l
/snort/qfe1 -c /usr/site/snort/rules/snort.conf > /dev/null 2>&1

I have tried:

- changing the order of the command line arguments (particularly -s);
- removing -s and configuring "output alert_syslog: LOG_AUTH LOG_ALERT"
   into snort.conf;


[...snip...]

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,
