Hi,
FATAL ERROR: Undefined variable name: (/etc/snort/snort.conf:508) This is the line that is bad according to the error message: output database: log, mysql, user=xxxxxxxxxx password=xxxxxx dbname=snort host=[name of box]
if I interpret the error message correct then I would assume that you have a '$' sign somewhere in the username or password and snort tries to interpret this as a variable which is not known. That is just a guess... Regards Dirk ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
