Re: [barnyard2-users] Logging to the Windows event log

Snort used to log events to the Event Viewer under Application log, but
apparently that function is no longer works.

Using the below in the snort.conf used to work:

output alert_syslog: LOG_AUTH LOG_ALERT

It's been awhile since I tried this, but adding it to the snort.conf and the
barnyard2.conf, neither one will log. I don't get any errors but it doesn't
log.

Anyone have  an idea what happened?

Best regards,
Michael...

It doesn't seem to work anymore. Is this a function that Barnyard2 now
handles, or is it still in Snort?


I never remember snort being able to log directly to windows event log.

Mabey if you run a companion syslog server on your windows machine you
can act as a syslog endpoint.

You might want to ask on the snort ML.
