i wouldn't do anything like that, myself... i'd run snort as configured normally 
and also run TCPDUMP in capture mode for that host machine... then you have ALL 
traffic to and from that host and can then maybe also find stuff that is not 
already known or tracked... this way you can use whatever pcap dump tool you like ;)

sorry that i don't know anything about BASE or similar... i'm pretty old school 
i guess :|
