Hi !!

Sorry for the inconvenience of sending the same message over and over, but I thing my ISP is having some kind of trouble. I got repeated error messages saying that snort-users () lists sourceforge net was not going to accept my messages due to the lack of a postmaster account, and I did not receive any replies for the message, except yours ....

Anyway, thanks for the help !!

Carlos.

Hello Carlos,

as Jason Haar already have pointed out to you, logsnorter is not being
maintained anymore. You are free to fix the problem yourself, and to
send in any patches for inclusion etc.

But, it does _not_ help sending the same message in over and over. If
anyone wanted to reply to it, they would already done so.

Best regards

And yes, you need to dust off your perl skills to take a deeper look
into it. No-one else has offered their help so I guess it's up to you if
you want it fixed.

Having said that, if you feel like throwing some cash into the problem I
will most certainly take the time to solve this issue.
