Re: Logging - A easy way ?

Snort only outputs events that are triggered by rules.  While running snort
did you send/sniff and UDP traffic that would cause a rule to fire?

A few days agos I wrote about my BASE that was not displaying any UDP
alert. It was 100% TCP. Unfortunately I could not resolve it. I'm doing
some tests. My plan is very simple. I want to know if snort is checking
against UDP. So I want to elimita BASE from this scenario.
Acording with some documents that I found on the web, it seems that
/usr/local/bin/snort -d -h IP/32 -l /tmp/test -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -s
Would write some logging information to /tmp/test.

After running the command (in bold). I stop it with 'Ctrl + C'. And so

ls -l /tmp/test do not display any files!

My question is simple: Is this command correct ? Will it write logs/alert
to /tmp/test ?
What command would do simple write alerts to log?
