It looks like mysql is denying the connection for snort from 192.168.1.16 I would say add permissions to mysql so snort can connect from 192.168.1.16 But I could be wrong.

Hello all, As many others have done I'm trying to setup a remote Snort sensor that will report to a central mysql database. I'm using: snort + snortcenter + mysql + acid on two boxes: 192.168.1.199 <sql server> 192.168.1.16 <remote snort> both boxes have the following installed. snort snortcenter mysql webmin acid nagios Both snort installs work fine if I direct them to log to thier local mysql databases (localhost) The error appears when I try and redirect the output of sensor (x.16) to the mysql server (x.199), it is as follows: Btw: im using the following output plugin: output database: alert, mysql, user=snort password=sentinix dbname=snort host=192.168.1.199 port=3306 sensor_name=[AUTO] ERROR: database: mysql_error: Access denied for user: 'snort@192.168.1.16' (Using password: YES) Fatal Error, Quitting.. database: compiled support for ( mysql ) database: configured to use mysql database: user = snort database: password is set database: database name = snort database: host = 192.168.1.199 database: port = 3306 database: sensor name = Ren I know this is a mysql access error, Ive used the webmin mysql server plugin to try and configure the mqsql "user" and "database" permissions every way I can think of and I still get the error. Ive googled it, Ive RTFM'ed it, Ive been working on it for days and Im on a time schedule...Im getting frantic here ;) I know this has been done successfully but I also realize this is my first attempt with mysql and it isnt working for me. I would greatly appreciate any and all help resolving this! Thanks, Michael ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
