Hello,

I think there is sth wrong with snort. This is my configuration.

I use daemontools to run snort with such script:
-------------------- cut here --------------------
#!/bin/sh

snorth=/home/snort
snort=/usr/local/bin/snort
sncfg=etc/snort.conf
ug="xten"
exec $snort -i xl0 -d -t $snorth -u $ug -g $ug -e -p -o -c $sncfg -l log/
-------------------- cut here --------------------
So it should run in changeroot (-t), but when this script is run by
daemontools, there is a error message:
Initializing Output Plugins!
ERROR: log directory 'log/' does not exist
Fatal Error, Quitting..

Well. I've made workarround by making log subdir in place, where snort is
started. But in previous versions I have not had such problems? Is this
correct?

Greeting from Poland
