simultaneous snort and tcpdump

I wish to run tcpdump (with a certain bpf filter $MYFILTER) and snort (in NID mode) simultaneously on the same live network traffic. The following appears to work, but I don't know how robust or dependable this method is. On one terminal: # mkfifo sniff # snort -b -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -r sniff Then on another terminal: # tcpdump -i eth0 -w - | tee sniff | tcpdump -r - $MYFILTER Comments? Is there a better way? - Carl ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ 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
