Hi,

I am trying to write rules so that I can directly send data to a socket.
However, the documentation for the Alert_unixsock option as outlined in
the documentation seems to be incomplete, since it does not include any
specification of the socket number. What is the correct format for
this option ??


There's no socket  number, all you need is to connect(2) unix socket
SOCK_DGRAM to /dev/snort_alert (defined as UNSOCK_FILE in snort.h)

(I wrote a sample years ago, if you want, I could dig it up :))
