Yeah, I've had that happen, pretty annoying. ;) If you can wait a week I'm sure my new doc will be ready. If you're happy with the old one, try rm -rf'ing the Snort directory and when you re-./configure --with mysql, don't specify the directory where mysql is. BSD usually finds it on it's own. I'm not sure why it doesn't find it when you specify since that *is* where it is, but then again an obstacle you can go around isn't really an obstacle. --- Vella James at MITTS <james.vella () magnet mt> wrote:
hey guys! i have a headless freebsd 4.6 box, as setup per instructions "Tutorial for a Basic Snort/MySQL install on FreeBSD 4.4 Stable", yet the startup script (snort.sh located at /usr/local/etc/rc.d/) generates the below logs on startup, any ideas? ***************** /kernel: rl0: promiscuous mode enabled snort: database: mysql support is not compiled in this copy snort: FATAL ERROR: Check your configurations file to be sure you did not mis-spell "mysql". If you did not, you will need to reconfigure and recomplile ensuring that u have set the correct options to the configure script. Type "./configure --help" to see options for the configure script. /kernel: rl0: promiscuous mode disabled ****************** the above has been done. if i were to hash out the 'output to mysql' (syntax in snort.conf is perfect) in the snort.conf file and unhash (lets say) the xml logging the script works, and snort starts! can anyone shed any light, appologies if this is a dumb question, but i've been stumped! rgds james
