-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all I was just wondering if I was missing any tricks here - - and interesting if anyone is doing things differently. I'm spawning multiple Snort processes - with a different - -l to write unified2 output into seperate directories. As a result I'm running multiple Barnyard2 processes, each reading the directories in continuous mode - and writing to DB and Syslog. Is this the optimal way of doing things, or am I missing a crafty command-line option somewhere?
It is currently the best way to handle things. I personally think its a good way to be able to manage instances separatly even if barnyard2 is not involved in the process, for signature, configuration, etc... Logging unified2 file of multiple snort process in a single directory even if you would have different prefix could lead to potential error when trying to manually manipilate the files for example. -elz
