Rather then using the command 'touch /var/log/snort/alert' to put it back, just leave it gone and -HUP the snort process. Also, if you are using logrotate be sure to add the copytruncate option before HUP'ing snort. -=Mike On Wed, Mar 24, 2004 at 11:18:40AM -0800, ids () san rr com wrote:
Yes Snort does have permissions...nothing really changed. I've been doing some further research and it seems once you delete the alert file Snort no longer will right to the file any longer. Can anybody verify this? I find that hard to believe there isn't a configuration somewhere. Thank you! Alan
