Matteo,

Good. However, as per the previous post, I still recommend you create
SQL credentials to be used by your application/agent. 

Cheers,
Robert

Ok, it was much simpler than I think...

Create a new ODBC source AND where you found "change the deafult
database to"
select RealSecure DB. The first time I've created the ODBC DSN I've
found only <default> in the list, but when I've tries to reconfigure the
DSN I've found the RSDB in the list.

I hpe it could be useful to someone else, Thanks for the help,

Matteo

Matteo,

You cannot use the SQL logins (IssApp, EventCollector_XXXXXX etc.) 
that are created by ISS components, since these have random passwords 
which are stored securely. (Even if that were not the case, using the 
same account for two distinctly different processes goes against best
practice.)

The solution is to simply create a new SQL login for your agent
process.
From what you wrote, this looks like a read-only/reporting scenario, 
so the standard SQL roles public+db_datareader would probably suffice.

Cheers,

Robert

Hi all,


I've a problem with the Evaluation version of ISS Site Protector
Suite:

I'm developing an agent capable to connect to Snort and ISS IDS sensor

so I've to see how ISS write alerts data in the database.


I've installed the evaluation and it works perfectly, but I recognize

that I dont know how to login into the MS SQL desktop database to see

tables. 

Is it possible? 
Is the login the same one of the Site Protector system or something 
else?

Could someone help me?
