Barnyard 0.2 alert_csv not producing output


Posted by nero3100 on August 05, 2005 07:45:54

I am running snort 2.4, barnyard 0.2, on FreeBSD 5.4. My goal is to product a csv_out file of alert information and a tcp dump file of the associated tcp streams. I'm choosing to do this through barnyard because I am on a high bandwidth pipe (1gb/s using a metanetworks nic)

In barnyard.conf, have commented out all output's, and uncommented output alert_csv (default csv entries). I am using the waldo file to pick up the snort.log file.

In snort.conf, the only output modules i have are output alert_unified, and output log_unified to produce the snort.alert.xx, and snort.log.xx.

When I envoke log_pcap, it does produce information from barnyard, so it's working. But I just can't get a alert_csv file to generate.

Any suggestions.
