Hi all,

I am running Snort 1.5.1 on my machine. Unfortunately Snort is directly logging
port scans (nmap/ nessus) into the snort.log file in binary format. I would like
it to log alerts as well to syslog. 
The only thing snort logs is "snort uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)" in 
/var/log/messages.
 As far as I think I have set the right parameters. The startup script looks
like:

 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $DAEMON -- \
                -D \
                -S "HOME_NET=$DEBIAN_SNORT_HOME_NET" \
                -h "$DEBIAN_SNORT_HOME_NET" \
                -c /etc/snort/snort-lib \
                -l /var/log/snort/ \
                -s \
                -b \
                $DEBIAN_SNORT_OPTIONS \   


I set the home network as 192.168.194.0/24. I also tried 192.168.194.190/32
which actually  is the machine where snort is installed on. The test port scan
is coming from another machine within the same network - could that be the
problem?

Jan
