Hi ,

After checking the processes running on Snort, like httpd, snort and mysql, i am getting the following output. Please let me know if their is any problem with the installation so that i can reconfigure it.

*********************************************************************************

[root@localhost snort]# ps -ef |grep mysql

apache    1530  1234  0 17:53 ?        00:00:00 [httpd]

Snort is fine i guess

[root@localhost snort]# ps -ef |grep snort
root 1401 1 0 17:51 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/perl /opt/snortagent/sensor/miniserv.pl /etc/snort/miniserv.conf root 1546 1 0 17:54 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/bin/snort -D -i eth1 -U -o -c /etc/snort/snort.eth1.conf
root      1594  1456  0 18:02 pts/0    00:00:00 grep snort


**********************************************************************************
Hi,

I using the following to configure Snort

OS :- Redhat Linux 9.0
DB :- Mysql
Snort Version :- 2.0.2

I am new to snort so i had referred to the "Enterprise Installation" Doc from www.snort.org

Please let me know how do i verify the below configuration, i dont know much about Mysql DB.
   1. You configured snort to use a SQL-database?  - Used MySQL
2. You created the database and tables for snort? - Yes, referred to doc
3. You confirmed that snort logs into the database? - please let me know do i check this 4. You configured ACID to use the db? - please let me know do i check this 5. State the version of the tools used and any error message you encounter when starting snort or accessing ACID.

No error message encountered while installation, except for while installation of NetSSLearpm for Snortcenter.
Error:- Pod2man not found in the path.
But the when i checked it was their in the PATH. So while selecting Sensor i selected non-SSL.

You should provide more information.
1. You configured snort to use a SQL-database?
2. You created the database and tables for snort?
3. You confirmed that snort logs into the database?
4. You configured ACID to use the db?
5. State the version of the tools used and any error message you
encounter when starting snort or accessing ACID.

The information you gave does not provide any clues to your problem.

Cheers,

Ralf
