Vi /etc/syslog.conf Local0.* @1.1.1.1 <replace this 1.1.1.1. with your syslog server IP> Service syslog restart From: Tudor Panaitescu [mailto:TPanaitescu () colorcon com] Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2011 3:47 PM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] snort logging both to syslog and unified2 Hi I was trying to enable logging on snort together w/ barnyard2 w/ unified2 and it looks like something is not working properly when trying to have both logging alerts to syslog and also via barnyard2. It also looks like the syslog output plugin of barnyard2 (version 1.9) doesn't seem to be working at all but this is another part of the story 1. Right now I have snort running + the good old barnyard and the settings in snort.conf for logging are: output log_unified: filename snort-unified.log, limit 128 output alert_syslog: LOG_LOCAL0 LOG_ALERT output unified2: filename snort.log, limit 128 and the run options are: -A fast -d -D -i eth1 -u root -g snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort in this scenario unified works, syslog works but unified2 doesn't work (no updates in the unified2 log file) 2. snort conf: output alert_syslog: LOG_LOCAL0 LOG_ALERT output unified2: filename snort.log, limit 128 run options: -A fast -d -D -i eth1 -u root -g snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort in this scenario both unified2 and syslog seem to be working fine. However, barnyard2 doesn't seem to be able to process anything, nothing shows up in base. 3. snort conf: output alert_syslog: LOG_LOCAL0 LOG_ALERT output unified2: filename snort.log, limit 128 run options: -d -D -i eth1 -u root -g snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort unified2 seems to be working OK but syslog is broken; barnyard2 sends data to base but nothing shows up in the syslog Any ideas anyone ?
