+Barnyard2 is a fork of the original barnyard project, designed
+specifically for Snort's new unified2 file format. It is a
+critical tool for the parsing of Snort's binary log files to a
+variety of output plugins, capable of asynchronous processing,
+while Snort continues it's job.
+
+See README.SLACKWARE for some instructions on setting up Barnyard2.
