Re: Access Denied when logging to MySQL database

A couple things to check first are:
1. can you log in remotely via the command-line (ie
not thru snort)?  Use "mysql -u [user] -h [serverIP]
-p"

2. did you do a "flush privileges;" or restart the
server after you added the privileges?

3. There is a command in mysql that pops up everyone's
permissions and for the life of me I can't remember
what it is.  Ack.  Now I'll be thinking about this all
day.

I'm following Steven J. Scott's Snort enterprise
Implementation v2.0 and I'm
running into some hang-ups. When I start snort I get
an error that says
"database: mysql: Access denied for user:
'snort@192.168.0.1' (Using
Password: YES) Fatal Error, Quitting...

Seems like a permissions issue, but I put in the
accounts and all of that.
maybe I did it wrong? mysql daemon needs to be
restarted?

I'm going off this manual word for word but it seems
like there are a few
flaws in it here and there. Anyone have experience
with it?
