Interesting....and guess what...barnyard2 doesn't seem to log portscan
data:

Jul 26 20:34:39 gateway snort[4555]: [122:17:0] (portscan) UDP Portscan
[Priority: 3] {PROTO:255} 205.171.2.25 -> my.ext.ip

A search for 205.171.2.25 came up empty....I think we have our issue.
Time to talk to firnsy mabye?


The only thing that barnyard2 is not logging should be
EXTRADATA events.

Now in barnyard2 1.10, the only issue i could see that would lead to
your portscan not being reported is the spooler cache mechanism that
will be removed in a future version since the spooler has been refactored.

You can find a version of barnyard2 without the spooler cache and with
spooler improvements @ https://github.com/binf/barnyard2.

Let us know if this fix whats you are observing.

Thanks
