think you for your help,
all things work well know but the problem is when i want to use snort in mode NIDS i must change the directory of mysql.sock in my.cnf file from /tmp/mysql.sock to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock as knowing as the mysql.sock directory file is /tmp/mysql.sock so i did a link in /var/lib/mysql/ to /tmp/mysql.sock and it worked but when i wont to use Acid it gaves me this error:


Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) in /www/htdocs/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 266

Error (p)connecting to DB : snort@localhost
to resolve this problem i must change the directory from /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock to /tmp/mysql.sock in my.cnf file and it worked but the same for snort

so to resolve this problem when i wont to use snort i start mysql with:
mysqld_safe --socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

and when i wont to use acid i restart mysql with:
mysqld_safe --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock

i know, it's a stuped solution so please if you have another solution please write it to me

think you for your help

Dejavue!
cp <snort installation directory>/etc/unicode.map /etc/snort/unicode.map
vi /etc/snort/snort.conf
 goto line 285, modify the line to point to the /etc/snort/unicode.map.
