Subject: [Snort-users] Snort Ignores Filenames for alert_unified and

Does Snort just ignore the base filenames set for the alert_unified and
log_unified options? I have tried this:

---snort.conf snip---
output alert_unified: 00-snort.alert, limit 128
output log_unified: 00-snort.log, limit 128
---snort.conf snip---

And these are the filenames I get:
# ls -1
snort-unified.alert.1258491654
snort-unified.log.1258491654

Anyone have these types of issues?

Hi Eoin,

You need to use the filename option, i.e.

output alert_unified: filename 00-snort.alert, limit 128
output log_unified: filename 00-snort.log, limit 128

Thanks!

Marcos
