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
