Event Cache

["Paul McMonagle" <paul () dbu edu>]

Greetings,

I am currently running snort on a Suse 9.0 box. I am logging to a mysql
database. I use acid to parse the logs and generate events. Lately
however, I've run into somewhat of a snag. My event cache is becoming
too large. When I attempt to delete the generated alerts (most false
positives.) The "clear event cache" button only gives me a time out
request. Is there a way to clear the event log without using the web
interface?

Thanks for your help in advance. I'm new to the whole snort business.

For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
The LORD gives grace and glory;
No good thing does He withhold from 
those who walk uprightly.
