What do you have snort's output set too?
Have you checked the mysql tables directly?
Does barnyard give any errors (and is it running?)?

its really works, thanks. here is the rule:

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"DOS syn attempt";
flags:S; flow:to_server; classtype:attempted-dos; detection_filter: track
by_src, count 1000, seconds 40; sid:1000024;)

the only think is: i cant see the msg on BASE GUI, and this is a really
interesting thing.

im testing snort attacking it with a tool called "letdown".it is a tcp
floder. The think is: im not able to detect what could be a potencial dos
attack.
Letdown generate like 65000 syn packets, so this should be detect fot
snort. I have uncomment the dos and ddos rules, but no deal. so im tring to
create a rule to detct this kind of traffic. Is that possible? any idea how
i can do that?


Check out Snort's README.filters.  There are rate_filter examples for
135:1 that you can start with.
