I=B9m trying to get Snort on my honeywall to log against an external mySQL-database. I=B9ve added this line to /etc/snort/snort.conf: output database: log, mysql, user=3Dsnort_user password=3D******* dbname=3Dsnort_db host=3D******* I=B9ve set up the mysql-server (and know it=B9s working, since I=B9m already running another snort-process from a different IDS-sensor against it), and the honeywall-logs tell me that the Snort/MySQL-handshake is completed afte= r Snort is restarted. My question is then: Why isn=B9t Snort sending data to the database? Snort is running and generating regular logs in /var/log/snort/xxx/, but nothing is sent to the external database. Port 3306 is open, but there is no traffic going out of the honeywall-GW on it. Thank you. Kind regards Christian --Boundary_(ID_q1qEWLtujnvxKWqdV0ZDwQ) Content-type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Logging to MySQL from Snort (Honeywall CD)</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Hello.<BR> <BR> I’m trying to get Snort on my honeywall to log against an external mySQL-database.
