Re: barnyard 2.0.0 & snort-2.8.1

["Bamm Visscher" <bamm.visscher () gmail com>]

It's not a "new" output format. If provided no output mechanism via
the cmd args or config, then snort uses binary (pcap) as the default
log type now. By default, snort also uses the prefix "snort.log" for
the binary output files. Yes, that is the same prefix as the unified
log output plugin uses. I wish someone would change that. Maybe
"snort.unified". Please?
