Alert Method in Snort & SnortSnarf

["Pathmenanthan Ramakrishna" <nanthan14 () lycos com>]

hi, i using snort and snortsnarf. Both are working perfectly, but when i run snort,as we know  it group the data into 
the log files. How do i create alert file so that when i run snortsnarf i could view the html page where it takes from 
the log file?
 
Does snort creates the alert file in different directory?Normally the log files ar stored in snort/log.
 
I dont know where to write the alert statement(rule) so that snort could create a alert file when i perform a attack to 
a host and detects ICMP packets.
 
im new to this tools, so i need some help as for my research..please kindly help me..
 
thanks
 
with best regards
