Looking for those who use LogSnorter

Linux Kernel 2.6.3 Monolithic
Mysql 4.0.17
Acid 0.9.6b23
Snort 2.1.1
iptables 1.2.8 and IPKUNGFU 0.5.1 that generated the rules
with
Logsnorter 0.2

I was following a howto provided by SANS.org What I noticed is that nothing was being imported in the probes database as I had called it. I changed my already working snort to input into this new database and use acid to view it. The permissions for mysql check out and I saw alerts in the database. Back to the logsnorter script, I noticed that there is some code missing in the iptables subroutine. Even though I used IPKUNGFU for my initial rule generation, this problem would affect anyone who used a log prefix to add a comment to the syslog messages. Messing around I got the script to parse my syslog messages, however, it only outputed them to the STDOUT and not the database. The only info I have seen on logsnorter was how someone had someone else fix the subroutine to work with IP tables. I will continue to work on it and see if anyone can point me in the right direction to input the Firewall logs into acid.

Thanks,
Michael Shirk
