Just a guess, but Webmin could be running snort as an user
and you probably run it at the console as root. You could
also use ethereal to check the connection to the database
in both cases to see the differences.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
