You forgot to add the -f switch.  Barnyard needs to know what file to
read.  Usually it's something like -f /var/log/snort/snort.log  

Try that :)

Subject: [Snort-users] Barnyard... need... help...

I've valiantly battled with barnyard for too long, and I need some help.
Here is the command I have been using..

[root@**** etc]# barnyard -D -c /etc/snort/barnyard.conf -g
/etc/snort/etc/gen-msg.map -s /etc/snort/etc/sid-msg.map -o
/var/log/snort/uni_snort.log.1060091088

And here is what I get from syslog..

Aug  5 09:59:11 **** barnyard: Loading Data Processors...
Aug  5 09:59:11 **** barnyard: dp_alert loaded
Aug  5 09:59:11 **** barnyard: dp_log loaded

Aug  5 09:59:11 **** barnyard: FATAL ERROR: No file specified for
reading
Aug  5 09:59:11 **** barnyard: Exiting

I need some serious help, and if anyone can help me I would be more than
grateful.
