Snort -> Barnyard -> Remote MySQL DB (mysql.sock error)

Hello,
Sorry for posting this in the snort-users forum but I have been unable
to find any help anywhere else.  I recently configured Snort and
Barnyard on a remote sensor.  I would like to log the alerts to a
central MySQL server.  I have configured everything correctly but when I
run Barnyard I get the following error:
 
Failed to connect to database (null):XXXXXXXX@(null)/(null): Can't
connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'
(2)
Fatal Error, Quitting..
Exiting
 
Any ideas?  MySQL server is not installed/running on this remote sensor
and I would like it to not have MySQL server.
 
Thank you guys for your help.
 
-Dan
