RE: ACID & MySQL (Sensor)

["David Newsom" <webmaster () flmultimedia com>]

Thanks but I have already figured out my issue, user error (my error).
Thanks for the help but now I have MySQL and SNORT working perfect,
hopefully for now on….

Thanks again.

I'm working on Unix environment, but why don't you try Mssql instead of
Mysql

Anyone,

Trying to do the windows iis with MYSQL and Snort running, when I try to run
snort now by the command given in the instructions (snort -de -c
c:\snort\etc\snort.conf -l c:\snort\log -i1)  It starts up but then I get
this error

ERROR: database: mysql_error: Can't connect to MySQL server on '3306'
(10060) Fatal Error, Quitting..

Also, couple of questions:  What should 'sensor_name' be or what does it
represent?

Oh, on the IIS, for the Virtual Directory for Console, I have a icon "STOP
SIGN" represented.

Any help is must appreciated, or the right direction towards corrections.
Thanks



Here is a couple of lines before the error comes up.
