Re: [Snort-users] Output Plugin writing

I guess I wasn't being clear enough earlier, my apologies. I need to use a
plug-in, or write a plug-in that allows me to take selected data from the
packet and put it in a pike delimited file so our reporting program we
already have in place can read the file. My problem is, I'm having trouble
finding a template to follow, and the attributes for the different data
structures, especially the Packet one. I hope that helps clear things up.

Thanks,
Brian
