Re: Where is "snortdb-extra"?

snortdb-extra.gz's removal is described here:
http://cvs.snort.org/viewcvs.cgi/snort/contrib/Attic/snortdb-extra.gz

I found that I didn't need snortdb-extra.gz to make acid display the
data, but I did need to import the create_mysql file into the DB. Acid
uses that, not the snortdb-extra files to show the sig descriptions.

Well, the way I configured and used my Snort/Acid I needed the extra
tables.
In the schema-script "create_postgresql" I found this entry:

-- be sure to also use the snortdb-extra tables if you want
-- mappings for tcp flags, protocols, and ports

Without the extra tables Acid showed just signature IDs and no
description.

I raised this same question several weeks (?) ago.  It doesn't appear clear to me if anyone even knows why the the 
extra databases are needed, and if so, who uses them.  I did a quick check through the ACID source code, and did 
not see references to them.

Hi!

Thanks.


I checked an old version from snort (ver.2.1.0). In this tar.gz one can
find the "snortdb-extra.gz" and other files under the directory
"contrib".
In 2.3.0 they obviously changed the structure and forgot files like the
"snortdb-extra.gz". Is this known or even intended?

regards
Heinrich

Hello!

I just wanted to install the new 2.3.0 release. After finishing my
configure, make und make install procedure, I wanted to create my
database tables when I realised that I don't have the
"snortdb-extra.gz".

Can anyone tell me, where it is?

Thanks
Heinrich
