No alerts

I downloaded and compiled Snort 1.8.4, replacing the 1.8.3-5 RPM version. It runs and logs fine, but doesn't generate alerts -- I don't mean SMB alerts, just plain Fast and Full alerts. However, switching back to the old binary -- without otherwise tweaking the configuration -- yields alerts once again.
I don't find any compile-time configuration options necessary to support alerts. But, perhaps I missed one.
Does 1.8.4 require command-line specification of alert-related options that could previously be specified in snort.conf?
The invocation is: daemon /usr/sbin/snort \ -D \ -c $CDIR \ -i $INTERFACE \ -l $DIRBASE/$WEEK/$DATE \ -u $USER \ -h $HOMENET and snort.conf has: output alert_syslog: LOG_LOCAL1 LOG_INFO output log_tcpdump: snort.log output alert_full: /space1/snort/snort-full output alert_fast: /space1/snort/snort-fast Q: What am I missing? --------------------------------------------------- Bill McCarty _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
