There is no longer a solution to plug Snort into any version of SQL Server with Barnyard2. There are quite a few sites that won't allow anything *.nix. If you are looking for Windows x64 support, it is available per individual request. All posted guided installs deal with 32bit. Kindest regards, Michael...

I agree that Windows is not the optimal solution, but the learning curve
for this folks to learn *nix will be as monumental as mine would be if I was trying to assemble a nuclear reactor. Indeed, I realise that. My point was more that Snort is a fairly complex application regardless of platform - so just having it on one they know (Windows) is no guarantee that they'll understand how it works any better than on a platform they've never touched (*nix). The 'put it in/configure interfaces/look at the Web interface' solutions I linked to perform a very good job of hiding all the complexity of the OS away. Obviously if the idea is to hook into very Microsoft-specific infrastructure (logging alerts to SQL Server, for instance) then Windows is a better choice. - -- Peter Bates Senior Information Security Officer Phone: +44(0)2076792049 Information Services Division Internal Ext: 32049 University College London London WC1E 6BT -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJQt34IAAoJELhVoVpEMS6RxH0H/2Dnd7eEUcGQcy5UxNYUC21e C+4tDrYG6SWtCjdydhS01y1KEt0oEj9PxqrwhOvRe1rpSoUSQzpLUCDZeWa7yc/u HUbOW7xJyjMeYF48uCZkDhSBvqat2H4QvQnVeZrlU9+bmoh5tgPAu2R+72iN9PTH 0A/j9yo8fWaSIK0EfkjbrXwwZcFxOQGBafEmbCYrP9yXATL37oRQmb5ILpbQdDgz Ah+sf/QvNyEAySArJAFqWbn1acKAH9Wa3BOb/K3uAU82qBhc+YzNQcKDnyyFt+yx 3v3obvYMD9bb5WMZnjpLAcg35vEZxkV3qUUU5p8D2GZMxfpQC0M4n83kQSA2NnE= =IHr4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: VERIFY Test and improve your parallel project with help from experts and peers. http://goparallel.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=snort-users Please visit http://blog.snort.org to stay current on all the latest Snort news! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: VERIFY Test and improve your parallel project with help from experts and peers. http://goparallel.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=snort-users Please visit http://blog.snort.org to stay current on all the latest Snort news!
