There needs to be something that will trigger an alert in order for there to
be something in there.

Try adding these to a file called test.rules and edit your snort.conf to
load the new rule set

alert icmp any any -> any any
alert tcp any any -> any any

Then add a -o to your snort run line

Then restart Snort and do some browsing of the web and you should get a LOT
of alerts.

You can do a tcp dump of port 3306 on your MySQL server to see if there are
any alerts getting through.

Kindest regards,

Do you have the ICF enabled on your SP2 WinXP machine?

Hi everyone,

I have setup a Snort w/MySQL on Windows Xp SP2 machine with no problem.
However when I  run the Snort no logs are logged into database.
Database setting as well as the conf file looks fine and OK.

Any idea what I am missing here ??
