Re: Using syslogd more efficiently

syslog logs to that by default. But you can specify it otherwise in your snort.conf.

output alert_syslog: LOG_DAEMON

That will log to daemon instead of messages. A whole list[1] can be found within the manual.

Cheers!

I like the output format that the syslogd output comes in, but I don't want it to dump to /var/log/messages

Anybody here know how to configure this so that snort messages go to a different log file?
