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>.
