The output files generated by the unified output plugin (ie the alert
and log files) always seem to be created with only rw permissions for
the root user. I need to collect the log files from a Solaris machine
which does not allow remote root logins. Is there any way to get snort
to set a different acl on the output files? I've tried using the -u
option to run snort as a different user but the files still get created
as root. I can whip up a cron job to periodically chown the files but
I'd prefer something less hackey.
