Hello, Snort run as a superuser typically dumps logs with 0600 permissions. I am trying to make them readable also by other users in the group. However, when running: $ sudo snort --daq ipq -Q -d -m 0640 -c my.snort.conf -l my/log/dir/ the log files have permissions: -----r-rw- instead of -rw-r----- It seems that the octal digits are being interpreted backwards. Is that a bug? Snort version is 2.9.1.2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
