It is possible to send alert messages and some packet relevant data
from snort through a unix socket, to perform additional separate
processing of alert data. 
Snort has to be built with spo_unsock.c/h output plugin is built in and
-A unsock (or its equivalent through the config file) is
used. The unix socket file should be created in /dev/snort_alert. Your
'client' code should act as 'server' listening to this unix socket.
Snort will be sending you Alertpkt structures which contain alert
message, event id. Original datagram, libpcap pkthdr, and offsets to
datalink, netlayer, and transport layer headers.

Below is an example how unix sockets could be used. If you have any
comments bug reports, and feature requests, please contact
snort-devel@lists.sourceforge.net or drop me an email to fygrave at
tigerteam dot net.
