RE: -bash: /usr/sbin/snort/schemas/create_mysql: Not a directory

You said you were using my FC3 doc, it already installs from source, n
FC3 all you should have to do is the following. 

From http://www.internetsecurityguru.com/documents/snort_base_fc3.pdf

tar -xvzf snort-2.3.0.tar.gz
cd snort-2.3.0
../configure --with-mysql
make
make install
groupadd snort
useradd -g snort snort
mkdir /etc/snort
mkdir /etc/snort/rules
mkdir /var/log/snort

Hi All,

Lee, I'm in mysql/bin and if I run, ./mysql -h localhost -u root mysql 
-p it successfully starts after entering the password. What I don't un, 
is, why /usr/sbin/snort is reported as not a dir. I installed snort via 
yum. I can run snort just by typing snort @ the prompt.

EDIT: Ok, I decided to remove snort via yum and try a source install. I 
got the following,

**********************************************
  ERROR: unable to find mysql headers (mysql.h)
  checked in the following places
        /usr/include
        /usr/include/mysql
        /usr/local/include
        /usr/local/include/mysql
**********************************************
 whilst doing a ./configure --with-mysql. mysql is here, 
/usr/local/mysql. How do I get around it..? Cheers.

Mark Sargent
