Although, from [1] above, the scan is confirmed to be logged to

So, I am definitely re-confused.  What is the intended behaviour for the
scenario I describe?  Should, or should _not_, *all* events in
/var/log/snort/alert show up in the `daily report'?

I am missing something, and would appreciate a clue . . .

Snort does not have a functionality to give you a 'daily report', so what
package are you using to generate your stats?  If the data is in
/var/log/snort/alert then Snort is working just fine.  If it's not in the
report, then I'd say it's a problem of the logparser/reader.

Cheers!
