Hello, Sorry for posting this in the snort-users forum but I have been unable to find any help anywhere else. I recently configured Snort and Barnyard on a remote sensor. I would like to log the alerts to a central MySQL server. I have configured everything correctly but when I run Barnyard I get the following error: Failed to connect to database (null):XXXXXXXX@(null)/(null): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) Fatal Error, Quitting.. Exiting Any ideas? MySQL server is not installed/running on this remote sensor and I would like it to not have MySQL server. Thank you guys for your help. -Dan
When you built barnyard did you do ./configure --enable-mysql ? if no you need to do so & it will look for /usr/include/mysql/mysql.h which is part of the mysql-devel package -- Tony Placilla, RHCT, GSEC anthony_placilla@suth.com GPG-Key-ID: 1024D/C78F8B64 http://pgp.mit.edu Key fingerprint = A8D5 7AFF CE88 4179 C792 D9A9 F197 2A15 C78F 8B64 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
