Hi there,

I have just updated the cvs again with the new modified files:
1. /usr/share/naat/templates/etc/snort/snort.conf (checks out on all the
internal interfaces for all types of networks A, B and C)
2. /usr/share/naat/templates/etc/init.d/snortd (small typo that gave an error
while turining off the firewall)
3. update the events
4. /usr/share/naat/templates/usr/share/naat/scripts/snortsnarf.sh (same as
1.)

now, speaking of permissions, while typing "ps auwx" you can checkout that
snort has been started with the "-s" option. That means that all the alert
messages are send to /var/log/syslog. Then I use a program calles SnortSnarf to parse 
that
file and generate the Html tree. You can use the "Monitoring->Logs->Snort
Reports" section to acces it from your web browser.

So, I don't use the /var/log/snort directory at all ;)

Keep in mind that this is a very basic setup of snort<->SnortSnarf. We
will certainly improve it in the future and any ideas are welcomed
depending on your needs. 

cheers,
