Good Day!

Setting up bro on freebsd and noticing that the script to create
reports (/usr/local/scripts/site-report.pl) is generating empty
reports.  The reports contain the expected formatting but no actual
data.

Not sure if this is relavent but to run the script, I did have to make
the change to the "summary_only" variable as suggested here:
http://tracker.icir.org/bro/ticket/54

Here is an example of the script's debug feedback:


hosta# /usr/local/scripts/site-report.pl -r 36 -d 3
