Hi Y M,

Are you using MySQL 5.5?

Have you seen this?

You can also take a look at Security Onion if you'd like something to refer
to.

Hope that helps!

Thanks,
Doug

As soon as an event is generated, barnyard2 outputs:

On the Sguil server, this gets out:

Subject: [Snort-users] Sguil DB table names

 This is not strictly a Snort question, it is more related to Sguil and
hoping that someone may have insight into this.

I have a Sguil sensor setup to only use the snort_agent. My understanding
of Sguil is that as soon as a sensor reports an alert to the server for the
first time, it will create the event, data, icmphdr, iphdr, tcphdr, and
udphdr tables into the Sguil DB on the server.

That said, my setup does create the tables, however, it appends the sensor
name and a date stamp to table names. For example, my sensor name is
"ids-test" and the date is 12 May 2013. In this case, the tables created
will have the following naming convention: tablename_sensorname_datestamp
--> event_ids-test_20130512. This happens to all tables that get created.

This results in the following error:
ERROR: sguil: Expected confirm 1 and got: Failed to insert 1: mysqlexec/db
server: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near
'TYPE=MERGE UNION=('event_ids-test_20130512')' at line 1

If I rename the tables to the proper names, and run Sguil again, I get the
following error:
ERROR: sguil: Expected confirm 1 and got: Failed to insert 1: mysqlexec/db
server: Table 'sguildb.event_ids-test_20130512' does not exist.

If I drop the created tables and run the process, the same error (first
one) occurs again.

Am I missing something in the configurations (Barnyard2 or
snort_agent.conf) or the entire setup?

Thanks
YM
