With all the downsides of DB output plug-in and none (as far as this thread goes) upsides, I then raise the question: Why it is still present in snort source? Remove it. :) Although I would be against this, because I have some uses for it as 'bleh' in some test environments, which are small enough and servers doing tests are big enough for db not being a bottleneck. And I can't remember (this was a couple of years back), but due to not being developed barnyard had some problems with newer snort versions. I was very glad when FLoP appeared. -- http://nk99.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
