Just to clarify, you can't have more than one instance of barnyard using the same sid (sensor id), reporting to the DB. You can, however, 
have many different barnyard procs using a different sids reporting to the same DB. And I also just noticed that in the config files below, you 
ARE using different sids. (Note to self, don't reply to emails until AFTER the first cup of coffee. Are you sure that none of your other 
sensors aren't using the sid '3'?

Actually, we cannot be sure that they are both using different sensor_ids. config #1 is using sensor_id #4, config #2 is querying the database for the sensor id based on the tuple of hostname, interface, and filter.



Barnyard conf no 1:

processor dp_alert
