Hi Nathanael If I'm not mistaken the mysql.sock (2) is regarding authentication with mysql. I remember that if you dont supply the password,correct password, in the snort.conf or Granting the access to the snort table of mysql I hope this will help :-) --- Nathanael Morrison <nathanael_morrison () cogeco ca> wrote:
Hi, I can't seem to get snort to start at boot up. I'm current using the following: Linux 2.4.18 MySQL 3.23.39 Snort 1.8.6 I created two startup scripts, /etc/rc.mysqld and /etc/rc.snortd. I then run /etc/rc.mysqld first and then /etc/rc.snortd by making a call from /etc/rc.local. MySQL starts up fine, but snort does not. When I looked at the system logs I found the following error: snort: FATAL ERROR: database: mysql_error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) Now this is the part I can't figure out. If I call /etc/rc.snortd after logging in, snort starts up fine. Everything runs great, snort is logging to MySQL, and I can analyse the packets with ACID. Maybe I'm missing something... any ideas?
