Doh! Thanks. I was looking for a config option not a commandline switch. Much appreciated! -- Jason McCormick From: Russ Combs [mailto:rcombs () sourcefire com] Sent: Wednesday, October 05, 2011 11:32 AM To: Jason D.

The current output format is MONTH/DAY-HOUR:MIN:SEC.MILIIS as I assume everyone knows. However we're loading this alert format into Splunk for data visualization and searching and something about this timestamp format triggers a bug in Splunk that causes Snort log traffic not to be indexed. I realize this is a Splunk issue and not a Snort issue in and of itself. However is there a reasonable, possibly undocumented, mechanism to change the alert timestamp format - at minimum to include a year field? -- Jason McCormick ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
