Florian, Did you stop Snort prior to renaming the files? Snort will create the files if they are absent. Try stopping snort then move the files out then restart Snort. -Michael Michael Steele | System Engineer / Support Technician mailto:michaels () silicondefense com Silicon Defense: IDS solutions - http://www.silicondefense.com Snort: Open Source Network IDS - http://www.snort.org -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net [mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net] On Behalf Of Florian Huber Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 10:13 AM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] Clean up/Reset Logs Hi, can anyone tell me how to clean up/reset the snort logs ind /var/log/snort/*? I tried to rename the alert and the portscan.log file and create new empty ones, but snort wrote to the renamed files (alert.old). Is there a good solution? or do i have to remove the whole directory?
