SNORT: how to save the log file as ASCII format?

Most applications read the binary log format. Also for performance reasons the binary format is preferred. I would simply log to the unified log format and use barnyard to convert the logs to text on the fly.

This will allow you the flexibility of having binary logs as well as text.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
