RE: Acid X Mysql error

[Steve Halligan <agent33 () geeksquad com>]

For some reason, on my mysql server, snort connects just fine to
"localhost", but on the acid_conf.php I had to put in 127.0.0.1 to get it to
work.  I haven't had time to figure out why, since I got it to work I was
happy.

This started when adodb was added.  I am running OBSD 2.8 MySQL 3.23.  

Give that a try.
