Your config file does not have the entry for the password output database: alert, mysql, user=USERNAMEHERE password=PASSWORDHERE dbname=DBNAMEHERE host=HOSTNAME/IPHERE So in your case that would be : output database: alert, mysql, user=snortman password=snort dbname=snort host=localhost hmm wonder if that db could be accessed at 213.84.46.114 ;) regards Sean -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net [mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net]Im Auftrag von Folkert van Heusden Gesendet: Dienstag, 8.

Hi, I'm trying to get snort 1.8.7 to work with mysql 3.23.39 In snort.conf I added the following line: output database: log, mysql, user=userxxx dbname=xxx host=localhost When I logon into myqsl like this: mysql -u userxxx -h localhost -p snort all works fine! But if I try to start snort like this: /usr/local/bin/snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort.conf -dvi ppp0 I get the following error: database: compiled support for ( mysql ) database: configured to use mysql database: database name = snort database: user = userxxx database: host = localhost database: password is set Node unique name is: 213.84.46.114 database: sensor name = 213.84.46.114 database: sensor id = 1 database: schema version = 105 database: using the "log" facility limit == 128 UnifiedAlertFilename = snort.alert database: compiled support for ( mysql ) database: configured to use mysql database: user = userxxx database: database name = xxx database: host = localhost Node unique name is: 213.84.46.114 database: sensor name = 213.84.46.114 database: mysql_error: Access denied for user: 'snortman@localhost' (Using password: NO) This is rather strange! Suddenly it takes the password for the database-name, and when snort tries to connect to the database it doesn't use the password! Anyone got a clue what can be the cause of this?
