Sure, add this rule:

log ip any any -> any any

Greetings all,

I was wondering if it was possible to run snort logging ALL traffic to
a tcpdump file ( not just alerts ), while logging alerts etc to a
database/syslog in real time.

I have my snort.conf file setup for output plugins as such

output alert_syslog: LOG_AUTH LOG_ALERT
output log_tcpdump: snort.log
output database: log, mysql, user=snort password=xxxxxxxxx
dbname=snort host=xxxxxxxx

The reasoning behind wanting to keep full tcpdump logfiles is to be
able to replay whole sessions when anything unusual happens.

I am trying to avoid running both snort and tcpdump together at
once.....
Any ideas appreciated

Best regards
Ryan Oliver
