RE: snort & sql

["Morgan R. Elmore" <Morgan () SEEMAC COM>]

There might be a newer manual than the one I have, it's dated Oct 2002.

Page 11 Has the MySQL Installation and Database configuration instructions.

Subject: [Snort-users] snort & sql


I have read Steven Scott "Snort, MySQL and ACID on RedHat 7.3" and know I am
attepmting the setup. There are no instructions on how to setup the
database. I get the following
error:

database: compiled support for ( mysql )
database: configured to use mysql
database:          user = snort
database: password is set
database: database name = snort
database:          host = 172.16.1.2
Node unique name is: 172.16.1.2
database:   sensor name = 172.16.1.2
database: mysql_error: Host '172.16.1.2' is not allowed to connect to this
MySQL server Fatal Error, Quitting..

I have not setup any users in the database. I am just following the
directions. The above error happens when I run snort by :

snort -dev -l /var/log/snort -i eth0 -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

How do I get past this error?
