      I am wondering if anyone else gets double entries from snort inside their system logs.  If you do, does anyone know how to turn off the double logging or get rid of it doing the double logging?

            ok , i thought you might monitoring  two interfaces although pid sowing the same
            any way i checked at our system using 1.34 snort package its the same as you mention , its monitoring only the LAN int.
