It has been snort and I tried it as root last.=20 I am getting this error with snort. User=3Dsnort pass=3Dsnort db=3Dsnort Error:=20 Access denied for user snort () snort mta roc arnoldmagnetics com. Should I look at the database permissions? Or file permissions? How do I view database permissions?
Hello, it has nothing to do with file permissions. As you said in your following E-Mail you openend up the firewall Port, thats is of course a mandatory condition to access your database ;-) Your user snort must at least have the privileges to select,insert and update on your ids database. Do the following on your database-server out of your mysql client: mysql -u root -p mysql> grant select,insert,update on snort.* to 'snort'@'name or ipofyouridssensor' identified by 'snort' Now try a connect from your ids-sensor: mysql -u snort -h name or ipofyourdatabaseserver -p mysql>use snort; mysql>show tables; regards holger ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
