corrupt table problem with snort, mysql, acid and ssh setup

Hi I'm remotely administering a fedora 2 snort box via ssh. running snort with snort -c /etc.snort/snort.conf is fine - that is everything is logged to tables and shows in acid. But if i leave it running for over about a minute it buggers up. I lose my ssh and acid/apache service. I then have to get a guy from down the road to go and restart the thing for me. When I restart it i get this error message in acid: database: mysql_error: Got error 127 from table handler But nothing in mysqld.log This box is checking quite alot of traffic and i have minimised the rules to check against. when i run it for about 30 seconds it will not crash ssh or acid and acid can read the tables but everytime i do myisamchk afterwards i get : myisamchk: warning: 1 clients is using or hasn't closed the table properly MyISAM-table '/var/lib/mysql/snort/acid_ip_cache.MYI' is usable but should be fixed myisamchk: error: Size of datafile is: 0 Should be: 4011 myisamchk: error: Found key at page 2048 that points to record outside datafile MyISAM-table '/var/lib/mysql/snort/event.MYI' is corrupted Fix it using switch "-r" or "-o" myisamchk: error: Size of datafile is: 0 Should be: 6112 myisamchk: error: Found key at page 2048 that points to record outside datafile MyISAM-table '/var/lib/mysql/snort/iphdr.MYI' is corrupted Fix it using switch "-r" or "-o" There are similar errors for most tables not just the 3 here. I don't think the guy up the road will go and restart it for me again so would appreciate any help. Could this be reaching maximum table cache or memory of some sort so not closing the tables properly? I can myisamchk recover tables and it will be fine but i'd like to run snort for longer and not have to worry about losing my remote connection. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
