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.log. The output of this script is mailed to a user
that is setup in /etc/snort/snort.debian.conf. The cron script
/etc/cron.daily/5snort uses this script.

manpage were done by Christian Hammers <ch@debian.org>.
