None of the solutions I've come across online have fixed this problem. I have the following line in my snort.conf: output unified2: filename snort.u2, limit 128 I launch Snort with the following command: snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf And Snort writes snort.log files written in PCAP instead. Also another thing to note, even after I make direct changes to the snort.conf file it seems that when I run Snort the changes aren't taking affect. For example, I comment out the 'config logdir: /var/log/snort' line in snort.conf but when I run Snort log files (albeit pcap ones) are still outputted to the /var/log/snort directory. Any help will be appreciated Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
