Re: How Can I display the rule name instead of the ID with ACID?

Thank you very much for your reply.
As Matt says, what I really want is, how to display the signature
description on "sig_name" field instead of the signature ID.
I don't use barnyard, nor BASE. So the first thing I'm going to do is
installing Base. Do I need to use barnyard?

So, if by displaying just the sig-id in the signature field, instead
of the name of the signature, this leads me to believe that you are
using barnyard to read unified files and output their contents into
the db.

What the problem is, is not a problem with base, acid, or even Snort.
It's a misconfiguration in Barnyard.  You don't have your barnyard
reading your correct sid-msg.map file.

Yep, for a first step it will be great if you can
just use BASE instead. Just hit this following link
to download the latest version of BASE:

http://optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/secureideas/base-1.4.0.tar.gz

There are two column named "signature" and "sig_name"
on the "acid_event" table that contain the same value,

signature ID (sig_id).

In this case, what Berta really want is, how to
display
the signature description on "sig_name" field (not the

signature ID), CMIIW.

First, you should switch to BASE
http://base.secureideas.net.  ACID
has been dead for at least 5 years.

Second, do you mean that in the signature name field
you have a
number, and not the name of the alert?  Or are you
saying that you
want the description of the rule displayed
somewhere?

Please clarify your statement so that we can make a
better helpful
suggestion.

I use snort+acid+mysql. When I display the alerts
there is a
"Signature" column that is the signature ID.
I need the "sig_name" field (which is the rule's
description)
instead of the sig_id. The problem is in the
"acid_event" table,
here there are "signature" and "sig_name", both
with the same value,
the ID.
How can I do to get the description? there are a
lot of files and I
don't know which one I have to modify.
