OK, reworked all my scripts to handle multiple instances of barnyard but I have just realised that I can't find anyway of telling barnyard2 which sid to use. Nor does it allow a filter option as barnyard (acid output plugin) did.

So if you are splitting traffic on a single interface between two snort instances how do we configure barnyard2 so that it does not trip over itself with respect to sids.

I have poked though the source and played with putting the filters on the command line but am really none the wiser -- anything I put on the commandline seems to be ignored completly.

>From the source I think barnyard is supposed to take a filter on the commandline and us it to select sid but it still writes the pid file as barnyard2_<int>.pid so this will fail ???

Logically there is still just one sensor -- can barnyard2 merge input from more than one input file? I've googled and rtfm'ed and could not find anything that suggested that this is possible. I hope I missed something :)
