Hi people
I'm looking info for the unified login plugin implemented in spo_unified.c
>>From the documentation of snort, the alerts and the log file are
differentes i.e:
output alert_unified: filename $SNORTDIR/log/usnort.alert
output log_unified: filename $SNORTDIR/log/usnort.log
These is configuration in the snort.conf, write the alerts in binary form
to usnort.alert.timestamp and the packest to the usnort.log.
Well, looking at the source code of spo_unified.c, I have seen that there
is code to log to one unified file, where each record has the alert
information and the packet(s) that causes it. Looking futher in the code
I have seen the option:
output unified
That I think that can be the option for that unified logging, but
output unified: $SNORTDIR/log/snort.unified.log
give me an error:
ERROR: UnifiedInitLogFile(/var/log/snort/snort-unified.1175177880): No
such file or directory
Fatal Error, Quitting..
It's like the $SNORTDIR isn't defined, snort insits in create the snort
log file in /var/log/snort. Is this the correct behaviur of snort or it's
a bug?. If I put a absolute path doesn't work also (i.e, output unified:
/tmp/snort.log)
ERROR: UnifiedInitLogFile(/var/log/snort/snort-unified.1175178254): No
such file or directory
Fatal Error, Quitting..
If I create the /var/log/snort, then the option works as expected
(The header of the file created has the correct magic number)
Thanks in advance
Carlos
