It certainly clears it up. As a general rule, one should not write output plugins for the engine as they tend to slow it down and add unneeded overhead. The recommended way to perform these actions is to use unified output and a post processing piece of code to do the transforms to what ever system you choose. Barnyard is fairly easy to work with as are the perl and ruby unified tools. If you would like specific assistance please feel free to mail me privately. eschnei@CLEMSON.EDU wrote:
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, BrianI forgot to mention that you can use the ruby unified code that Caswell put out too. http://www.shmoo.com/~bmc/software/ruby/unified.html
