im using snort -b -L snort.log to get the fastest performance and the most details. and am running a cron job to extact the details from the binary file snort.log: snort -vde ....... -r snort.log. the problem is, when the snort done extracing the information from the binary file it doesn't clean my snort.log binary to log new information... so when i run snort -r snort it will give the old plus the new information. i tried using # echo -n "" > snort.log to empty it so that it logs only the new info... but snort -r snort.log refuses to read it and exists with an error saying bad dump file. any idea?
