I found that when I enabled tcpdump output module, binary file
tcpdump.log is stored in the sensor. I would like to mirror a dir or
file system which contains tcpdump.log file generated by Snort. I want
to keep a copy of this file system (contains binary file tcpdump.log)
stored in a remote server as well.

I found that verita Volume Manager/Replicator can do mirroring, but it
is commercial and I am not sure whether it is suitable for this
instance.

Any comment and suggestion is very appreciated.

What's wrong with sending Snort a SIGHUP once an hour, and then using
something like:

        scp tcpdump.file otherhost:/some/dir/for/snort/

Cheers!
