RE: [Snort-users] Snort Install DocMySQL connections aren't secure. If the
database goes down, you have know way of knowing if data made it into the DB
or not.   I can't imagine using the MySQL client across insecure networks.

It's not secure "Because they told me it was secure".
The people at the other end of the link know less
about security than you do. And that's scary.

  Rather than pulling snort logs hourly and using a remote
  system for storing them in ACID, did you consider using
  a MySQL client on each sensor to store the alerts in
  real-time?

  Ok, I have been working on this install doc and figured it was time for
  someone else to check it out.  This is version 0.5 and I still have work
to
  do, so keep that in mind.  Parts of the design are broken, you have been
  warned.
