Re: Always logging as binary!

-b is the default.   You have to specifically tell Snort to log in ascii. Check out -A

My snort installation has NEVER logged to ascii.  It has always logged to the tcp_dump binary format.  Even without the 
-b switch for logging!

Where can I look to fix/debug this problem?  We're sending our alerts to syslog and would like to do the same with the 
standard logs.   But first we need to log in non-binary format!
