Snort is open source. "Free"?  Did you configure the IDS or someone else?

 We use Snort with Prelude IDS (http://www.prelude-ids.com)

Snort needs to be (re)compiled with the Prelude library, and the Prelude
manager can email notifications based on different triggers.

We have deployed Snort configured to use MySQL through Barnyard with BASE
as the reporting tool.  We are looking for an open source utility to monitor
the database and generate email notifications on certain triggers like
filter name, classification or SID.  Does anyone have suggestions?



Thank you.
