FYI:

I've added preliminary support for unified2 to SnortUnified.pm

Pull trunk from SVN and have a go. I would be really appreciative of
feedback.

My understanding is that barnyard is basically orphaned and

there was no plans to update barnyard.

Hi .*!

So I sent this message to the barnyard-users mailinglist but
it seems that this list is dead. :/

Because this is (somehow) related to snort I will resent the message
to this list ...

I've tried to run barnyard 0.2.0 (build 32) to process the
unified alert files generated by snort 2.8.0 but unfortunately
it dumps core. e.g.:

debian3164m:/var/log/snort#
Barnyard Version 0.2.0 (Build 32)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This happens on:

debian3164m:~# cat /etc/debian_version
4.0
debian3164m:~# uname -a
Linux debian3164m 2.6.8-12-amd64-k8-smp #1 SMP Thu Dec 7 18:44:52 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux

with snort:

debian3164m:~# snort -V

Running barnyard in the dry-run mode it says:

debian3164m:~# barnyard  -c /etc/snort/barnyard.conf  -d /var/log/snort -g /etc/snort/gen-msg.map -s

So I tried to recompile with --enable-debug but this doesn't even compile:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../.. -I../../src -I/usr/include/pcap    -g -O2 -Wall -DDEBUG -ggdb -c 
dp_stream_stat.c
dp_stream_stat.c: In function 'StreamStatDpReadFileHeader':
dp_stream_stat.c:104: warning: format '%d' expects type 'int', but argument 4 has type 'ssize_t'
dp_stream_stat.c:104: warning: format '%d' expects type 'int', but argument 5 has type 'long unsigned int'
dp_stream_stat.c:112: error: 'StreamStatFileHeader' has no member named 'magic'
make[3]: *** [dp_stream_stat.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/maus/tmp/barnyard-0.2.0/src/input-plugins'

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/maus/tmp/barnyard-0.2.0'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

It will compile if I comment the offending line in dp_stream_stat.c:112:
112: printf(" Magic          = 0x%X\n", file_header.magic);

but does that help if I compile it like this and submit the backtrace of the
generated core file ?

Any help?

So long,

Andreas.

P.S.: I attached my barnyard.conf to this message.
