not putting logs in directory by ip address

Posted by dgragg on February 08, 2006 10:07:57

am using snort -d -l %path%\log -i2 and it is placing all information in one file called snort.log. I need it to push everything into its own directory. Any help greatly appreciated!

Dgragg,
You might want to try and specify the '-h 10.x.x.x' flag with your home network address, to see if that produces the required results.

I am having the same problem and tried specifying -h. It did not fix it for me.

The undocumented (-K ascii) switch seems to have done the trick for me. The 2.4 versions of snort tell you about this at startup, but it does not seem to be in the man page.
