google but cant find a simplier TUTORIAL wandering if anyone knows where i
can FIND A SIMPLER TUTRIAL just soo i can start using snort to moniter some
traffic???? Thanks


No, you do not need MySQL, a webserver or Acid. Just install snort, and
use the options for logging that come with snort. You will find these
options, along with all other set up options, in the snort.conf file.
Start out with this kind of setup, and then increase your complexity...

If you want though, I used this tutorial:

http://www.sfhn.net/whites/snortacid.html

to help me out getting ACID (which I'm loving) to work correctly on
RedHat 7.3.  Let me know if you need any extra help, I might have some
answers, it's working great for me so far.
