Chris - (Somehow I knew you would be the one replying :) ) So it appears to me that you are saying the file will be included in future distributions? I think this will eventually lead to having a document similar to past productions that explains how to make Snort.Win32->MSSQL->ACID work. I see it being somewhat simpler than MySQL, but we'll see. - Lee

The dynamic link libraries and utilities associated with DB-Library are only installed when performing a database server installation, or an installation of the SQL Server 7.0 client utilities. The primary dynamic link library associated with DB-Library for Win32 operating systems is ntwdblib.dll. This file is redistributable. If you wish to redistribute this file instead of installling the SQL Server 7.0 "Client Connectivity" components discussed in the previous section, simply copy the version of this DLL that shipped with either SQL Server 7.0 or SQL Server 7.0 Service Pack 1 into the Windows system directory on the target workstation. Note that you must also install MDAC because ntwdblib.dll depends upon several other components installed by MDAC, such as the SQL Server 7.0 network libraries. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Burleson, Lee (IA)" <Lee.Burleson () ia ngb army mil> To: "Snort-Users (E-mail)" <snort-users () lists sourceforge net> Sent: Friday, August 24, 2001 08:08 Subject: [Snort-users] Snort 1.8.1 Win32 MSSQLGreetings. It looks as though a dll needs to be included in thedistribution of 1.8.1Win32 MSSQL. Testing: * normal download, unzip, and config of Win32 MSSQL distrofails with a~'missing ntwdblib.dll' (I'll spare you the entire message)Windows error.* normal download, unzip, and config of Win32 -standard-distro works fine.* copied ntwdblib.dll from another PC with the SQL 2000client installed to%snortdir% * Win32 MSSQL distro now works I guess some would just say the fix is "Install the SQLclient", but in theinterest of security, I put forth that that is not the bestidea. With asimple file copy the problem is solved; I did not even haveto register it.Now that I've given it some thought, there _might_ berestrictions ondistribution of that file, so I think the _final_ solution may be an addition to the DB README that instructs the user to copythe file from anexisting SQL Server installation. - Lee _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
