Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Email alert and porscan.log on a daily
basis


Personally I have a small script in my daily cron that emails me the 
logfiles and then rotates them.

My script is quick, dirty, and might not work for you, but this is
the 
basic crux of the script is below (and yes I've modified my email
address 
to an invalid one in case someone is foolish enough to not change it
:)

SNORTLOGS=/var/log/snort

mail -s"Snort: Alerts" mkettler_snort () evi-inc com <
${SNORTLOGS}/alert
mail -s"Snort: Portscans Summary" mkettler_snort () evi-inc com <
${SNORTLOGS}/log

rm ${SNORTLOGS}/alert.2
mv ${SNORTLOGS}/alert.1 ${SNORTLOGS}/alert.2
mv ${SNORTLOGS}/alert ${SNORTLOGS}/alert.1


rm ${SNORTLOGS}/log.2
mv ${SNORTLOGS}/log.1 ${SNORTLOGS}/log.2
mv ${SNORTLOGS}/log ${SNORTLOGS}/log.1
