Description Benjamin Collins 2003-03-14 11:27:24 UTC
The latest version of snort uses a new 'unified' binary format in its logging,
and required a separate tool to read this format.  The snort.org documentation
suggests a tool called barnyard, but I suppose that there could be a number of
tools to read this format.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
N/A
Actual Results:  
snort can't read the log format

Expected Results:  
barnyard (or something else that would read the unified format) should be
included in the portage tree.
