At this point I would suggest going to http://www.snort.org/docs/ and looking under setup guides and using one of them to walk you through the install. I have an update to my redhat one that is on there at http://www.internetsecurityguru.com/documents/Snort_SSL_FC1.pdf They will walk you through the entire process. As for what you are trying to do now you have the binary distribution. If you do not understand what that means then you definitely should go get one of the install guides. The version you have does not compile, it IS compiled. There is are RPM's for just the client although I have never used them so I have no idea how they work. there is a source tarball for just the clients too. You can find these on the mysql website. Also you are using an ALPHA VERSION! Why? If you do not have a good reason then download and use the release version. Patrick S.

Copy the file "mysql.server" from the support-files subfolder (it is under the source for mysql. If you downloaded everything to /root/snortinstall, then the path will be /root/snortinstall/mysql-4.0.15a/support- files) to the /etc/init.d folder and call it mysql (the command to copy it from the support- files directory is "cp mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql") Use the following commands to create symbolic links in the startup folders for run levels 3 and 5. MySQL will now start automatically when you boot up. cd /etc/rc3.d ln -s ../init.d/mysql S85mysql ln -s ../init.d/mysql K85mysql cd /etc/rc5.d ln -s ../init.d/mysql S85mysql ln -s ../init.d/mysql K85mysql cd ../init.d chmod 755 mysql I restarted but mysql didn't started on this sensor...!!!

From RPM you can't for that version (that I know of) the mysql site has
only binary tarballs and source tarballs. Fedora itself is not up to 4.X for some strange licensing reason and is still shipping with 3.23. you could always download and install the full source, the client source, or what ever or use the RPM's -----Original Message----- From: Juan Fernandez [mailto:Juan.Fernandez () deltathree com] Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 9:55 AM To: Harper, Patrick Cc: 'snort-users () lists sourceforge net' Subject: RE: [Snort-users] PLEASE HELP !!!!!

Hi, I installed mysql on a fedora acting as a sensor as following: (I downloaded mysql-standard-4.1.1-alpha-pc-linux-i686). ./configure --without-server --prefix=/usr/local/mysql NOTE: This is a MySQL binary distribution.

I read that I need to "copy support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system" but what is the right place ? in order to that this machine passes the sql to the main management server ( with acid) is it enough to just configure snort.conf or I need also to configure something in the sql client on this client ? please help !! thanks !!
