Re: Information Not Appearing On ACID Console

[Valter Santos <vsantola () devfusion net>]

Hello,

I don't use webmin myself, so i can't help you on this one.
About alerts not appearing on ACID, be sure that your
/etc/snort/snort.conf is well configured to output alerts to mysql
database instead of flat files... you should have something like this in
your snort.conf, on step #3: Configure output plugins:

output database: log, mysql, user=<mysql_user> password=<mysql_passwd>
dbname=<mysql_database> host=<mysql_host> sensor_name=<sensor_name>

then restart your snortd deamon:

/etc/init.d/snortd restart

or 

/usr/local/bin/snort -i eth0 -D -c /etc/snort/snort.conf


hope this help
