 Hello. I have just installed and attempted to run Snort.

 I have it to log to a MySQL database, so it can be inspected via
 ACID.

 However, it refuses to start, complaining that it is'nt compiled
 with MySQL support. I ./configured with the following:

 ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/include/mysql

 That directory does contain mysql.h and other header files. There is
 no complaint from ./configure at any point.

 Has any one got any ideas on whats wrong? I have of course got the
 Header files from MySQL.com installed! Please forgive me for being a
 reletive Linux newbie!!!!

Apologies if this is patronizing, but are you sure you're executing the right snort binary? I ask because I just built 2.0.4 and was scratching my head for a while until I realized I was actually running an old binary...
