what does your snort.conf file look like? @ along the bottom somewhere u should have the output processor set to log to mysql (output database: alert,mysql, [credentials]) also make sure that interface eth0 is put into promiscious mode (ifconfig eth0 promisc) - jon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaplan, Andrew H." <AHKAPLAN () PARTNERS ORG> To: <snort-users () lists sourceforge net> Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 4:39 PM Subject: [Snort-users] Several Questions About Snort Operation
Hi there, I got Snort installed onto my system and when I run the binary from the
shell
prompt it appears that Snort is running. The syntax that I used is: ./snort -A full -i eth0 -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -v There are some things that I am not sure about: 1. I have the ACID program up and running but I am not getting information to display on the screen. 2. When I checked the snort_db database under MySQL there was no data. This probably explains the situation on item 1. 3. What, if anything, do I need to load on remote machines in order for the Snort server to be able to check things out on them? Essentially it appears Snort does run on my system, but there is no data
being
generated within the database and consequently nothing is appearing on the ACID console. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
