is there any way of collecting multiple snort sensor logs to a centralized
location?

Snort 2.9.12.0 has been released Please join us as we welcome SNORTⓇ
2.9.12.0 to the family!

Some release notes on this latest version:
New Additions

   - Parsing HTTP CONNECT to extract the tunnel IP and port information.
   - Alerting and dechunking for chunked encoding in HTTP1.0 request and
   response.

Improvements

   - Fixed an issue where, if we have a junk line before HTTP response
   header, the header was wrongly parsed.
   - Fixed GZIP evasions where an HTTP response with
   content-encoding:gzip contains a body that has a GZIP-related anomaly.
   - Fixed an issue in certain scenarios where a BitTorrent pattern is
   seen only on the third packet of the session, causing us to miss our client
   detection.
   - SMB improvements for file detection and processing.


We'd like to thank the following members of the Snort community for

Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Snort Blog: Snort 2.9.12.0 has been released
Hi,

I've just build from the source RPM on a centos 6 system that I
previously built 2.9.11.0 using the command:

        rpmbuild --rebuild snort-2.9.12-1.src.rpm

The rpms created are:

        snort-openappid-2.9.12-1.x86_64.rpm
        snort-openappid-debuginfo-2.9.12-1.x86_64.rpm

Is this version with openappid a drop in replacement for the previous one ?

Will any reconfiguring need doing?

Thanks

Ian

Thanks! I didn't knew about the USR1 trick.

kill –USR1 (snort pid) and snort will dump stats to stdout. See “Packet
I/O Totals” for packets read so far.

--pcap-list will run a batch of pcaps, but be aware that Snort resets
between each pcap so you would probably still need to do your merge.

Hi, I just wanted to share how I monitor progress and ETA while running
snort from a pcap file.



If I have only one pcap I use pipe viewer (the pv command) like this:



pv x.pcap | snort -r -



If I have more than one pcap, e.g. from a big tcpdump run, I merge all of
them on the fly using joincap ( https://github.com/assafmo/joincap )
like this:



joincap *.pcap | pv -s $(du -bc *.pcap | awk '/total/{print $1}') | snort
-r -



This way pv print progress and ETA information while snort is running. :-)



Shameless plug - I wrote joincap specifically for these kind of
situations, because mergecap and tcpslice does not handle errors very well.
