The line that configures snort to connect in snort.conf is uncommented and is like this: output database: log, mysql, user=snort password=****** dbname=snort host=localhost (****** is the password) and snort connects as snort user in Mysql and db name in mysql is snort. I have an empty event table. mysql> select * from event; Empty set (0.00 sec) My question is: when you setup snort and acid, is it supposed to work normally or do you have to configure other stuff and rules. My guess is that it should work, even though it might need to be tuned. But that's another story.
It should work normally. How long has Snort been running? I would have to guess that it hasn't seen anything that it considered something to alert on. Until it sees something, for example someone accessing a web server and trying to get cmd.exe, that your rules would fire on, it doesn't report anything for ACID/BASE to display.
