What is the deal with this guy!  He loves to complain before checking
for facts. 

I feel sorry for the Windows users!

No mention on Snort.org or in the list.

So we

It's sounds good, but I still can't configure snort + barnyard.

Last configs:

  - snort:

output log_unified: filename snort.log, limit 128

  - barnyard:

output log_acid_db: mysql, sensor_id 1, database snort, server x.x.x.x,
user
xxxxx, password xxxxx, detail full

In /log directory I see "snort.log.<timestamp>", "barnyard.waldo"
(with correct link to snort.log) and "alert" (with alerts produced by
snort).

Watching log files I see that barnyard works (link in waldo file
follows growing snort.log), but I don't get any new alerts in DB.

Using previous variant of configs (using unified alert) barnyard put
all alerts in DB.

Please, point me where I make mistake.
