     snort-stat — generates statistic of scans detected by snort

SYNOPSIS

     cat /var/log/auth.log | /usr/sbin/snort-stat

DESCRIPTION

     snort-stat is a small script that generates a nice statistic on the port scans that were detected by snort
     and reported via /var/log/snort/alert .  The output of this script is mailed to the user confgured in  the
     /etc/snort/snort.debian.conf configuration file.  The cron script /etc/cron.daily/5snort uses this script.

     The script is mostly based on the snort-stat from Yen-Ming Chen <chenym+@CMU.EDU>.  The hostname resolving,
     the big shrinkage and this manpage were done by Christian Hammers <ch@debian.org>.
