So there is no command line or config file for snort that will allow it
to keep logging to a database while creating an alert file for aris's
extractor to use.  It got to be something simple that we are missing.

TIA

Maybe so. I don't know. You'll have to log to the alert file if you want to
use ARIS though.

Check the ARIS and extractor (sfclean is now extractor) docs. They'll give
you the command line for both snort and extractor. Mine is
/usr/local/bin/snort -A full -c /usr/local/etc/snort.conf -dDeX -i xl0 -u
nobody. It works at least. Last time I checked, -A full and -d are the only
required ones.

Was the question regarding how to get Snort running, or how to get it to

I am getting ready to reset up aris on my network but I am confused on
what my command line should be.

Here is my basic setup:

IDS system logging to a remote Database

Command line for snort is:
/usr/local/bin/snort -D -d -c /etc/snort.rules

Here is the output part of my  snort.rules file

output database: alert, mysql, user=nobody dbname=snort host=postal


I am looking for the proper command line to run with SNORT.

TIA


If I read the man page right that overrides the databse logging.
