linux mysql database - wndows sensor.

Are there any secrets to getting a windows sensor running the latest snort and IDS center to log to a linux machine running snort-acid-mysql. When I set up the settings for snort in IDS center for mysql and click "test database connection" it shows one of the entries in the database. or least it seems to, so I think its connecting in some manner. And then when I apply and load the script and run snort. I sometimes get a message in the "overview" window that says it can't connect to the database. Or I get no message there but when I test snort by violating known rules like port scanning I get no message in mysql or acid on the linux machine. So was wondering if there is a certain set of command line options to use with snort on the windows machine, or if I'm doing something dumb, or if it's a minor change needed in the snort.conf. Any help would be appreciated. And I know the port scan events should show up because I have snort configured to make them show up in mysql. At least they show up with a similar configuration on my linux machine. Thanks. chris
