RE: Snort Stops Sending Alerts to MySQL

["Parker, Ian" <parker.ian () syncrude com>]

Michael,

All of the sensors are remote. There is no sensor on the same box as the
MySQL database. I am aware of the Windows binary for 1.9.0, but the variants
on your web site do not include one that has MySQL support. Will the 1.9.1
version have this?

Ian,

Is this ONLY happening on the remote sensors?

There is a Windows binary available for 1.9.0, but there is a new 1.9.1
version of Snort being released in the couple of days, and that release
will be available on our website. The release version of Snort 1.9.0 had
some problems which has been fixed in Snort 1.9.1.

I have Snort V1.8.7 sensors running on three Windows XP SP1 machines,
each
sending alerts to a central ACID console. Periodically, one or more
sensors
just stops sending alerts. There is nothing in the event logs to
indicate a
problem. Stopping and restarting the Snort service fixes the problem.
Has
anyone else noticed this kind of behaviour? Is there a way to
troubleshoot
this? I would try running V1.9, except that there doesn't seem to be a
Windows binary available yet with MySQL suppport.
