[Oisf-users] How to view unified2 logs ?

Hi.

Although I have got suricata to output to fast.log the archived logs are put
into unified2 log format.

I have tried to use http://code.google.com/p/snort-unified-perl/ - but this
seemed to fail.

I have tried installing barnyard on my local machine and copied the logs and
confirm files from the server (I am most likely doing this wrong)

barnyard -f unified2.alert -d /home/morgan/suricata/ -c
/home/morgan/Downloads/barnyard-0.2.0/etc/barnyard.conf -p
/home/morgan/csmith-suricata/suricata/classification.config  -s
/home/morgan/csmith-suricata/suricata/rules/emerging-sid-msg.map -vvvvv -g
/home/morgan/csmith-suricata/suricata/gen-msg.map -L /home/morgan/

Gives:-
