Re: [Snort-users] No portscan alerts shown in acid.

Maybe change your output database from log to alert? If I remember
right, that's what I had to do...

And of course, we always have to remember to restart snort after making
configuration changes :-)

I have made the following changes to the snort.conf file in an attempt
to
show portscan information in acid. I just don't see anything shown on
the
acid_main.php page. I do see the information being logged but nothing
is
being shown as a "Latest Greatest Alert".

I have looked in the mailing archives. Can anyone assist me in finding
out
what I am doing wrong?

Best regards,

Michael D. Peters
