BASE is a great place to start out. Maybe when you get everything working
properly then make the switch.

BASE is a viable option, it may not have a developer behind it right now,
but it's viable as a snort console.

Hello all

just a test, i will clear tables, and close browser, come back in 1 
hour increments, and see if that is the issue, it takes an hour to 
input new data after base clear table buttons have cleared. im 
assume there is a switch in the configs to make it quicker.

I've never personally looked for the option to clear tables in BASE 
but I can say I use a script called archivesnort.pl which moves alerts 
after 7 days to the archive DB and deletes them after 30.

If that is available with BASE I'd suggest you try that - i.e. 
modifying the database outside of the web interface - if you can't 
find it I can post it to the ML.

That's what we do and I've never seen the problem you're describing.

Alternatively, why not look at Snorby as a WUI - that has an inbuilt 
option to trim(*) the database after a fixed number of events.

* - by trim I mean 'delete oldest events but not the entire contents 
of the table' - I can't think of a better word.
