You can reconfigure your syslog.conf to log auth.alert to another file.

Put in an entry like:

auth.=alert             -/var/log/snort.log

and be sure to remove the same logging from /var/log/messages if you do not
want it there ( auth.!=alert ).

Alternatively you can use the -l option to specify a directory for snort to
log to.  It will create a file called 'alert' for alerts and 'portscan.log'
for portscan events.

Hi everyone

I´m new to Snort just recently compiled to run with my AIX 4.3.3 system. I
want to use snort to log
with syslog options but to /var/log/snort.log not to /var/log/syslog. How
can i do this I´ve tried
snort -c snort.conf  -s /var/log/snort.log    this did not work of course.
So any ideas ..


Thanks  Birkir
