RE: SnortCenter-Acid-SuSE byte_test issue

Hello guys,

I see the below e-mail is dated back on May 2004. I was running into the
same issue for quite a while but my approach was something like search the
byte_test word in the snort.conf file and delete it, then start snort.

Per AJ Butcher, I fetched the CVS distribution and still doesn't work.
Actually doesn't work anymore.
It gives back the message:
Database ERROR:Database ERROR:Unknown column 'id' in 'field list'

What could be wrong?

Thank you,

Hi folks,

I've been trying to get Snort running with SnortCenter and ACID on 
SuSE 9.0, but running into some issues.  I used Steven Scott's 
Implementation guide for Redhat 9.0 for guidance as much as possible.

Everything has loaded fine, and I got everything installed and 
configured up to the point where I tell SnortCenter what rules to use on
the sensor.
I selected "Use Default Active Snort Ruleset" and pushed the config to 
the sensor with no problems (also configured the home_net and 
external_net variables).

When I tell SnortCenter to start the sensor, the sensor kicks back the 
following error:

ERROR: ERROR /etc/snort/snort.eth0.conf (444): Bad arguments to
byte_test:  Fatal Error, Quitting..

This is a FAQ. Use the Snortcenter2 fork from CVS: 
<http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/snortcenter2/snortcenter-console-pat
ch/>

Best Regards,
Alex.
