FreeBSD.org lists ACID as Maintained by: foxfair@FreeBSD.org so i sent an e-mail reporting this situation and it bounced. The version included in the ports does not properly integrate with MySQL, and has been substantially revised in current releases >How-To-Repeat: 'cat /usr/ports/security/acid/distinfo' and notice that 0.9.6b1 01/21/2001 is ~20 revisions and ~13 months older then 0.9.6b20 02/05/2002. >Fix: fetch the most recent ACID source http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~rdanyliw/snort/acid-0.9.6b20.tar.gz I tested a full integration with FreeBSD 4.5 RELEASE #0, apache-1.3.23, mod_php4-4.1.1, mysql-server-3.23.48, snort-1.8.3, and acid-0.9.6b20 (plus dependencies). The combination runs without problems. Simply follow the Installation and Configuration guide on the ACID site to get this frontend up. In short, ACID is just a collection of .php files. Once prerequisites are met, the 'install' consists of expanding the files and moving them to the www/data.default/ directory. Edit acid_conf.php and you're good to go. So this fix should be trivial. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
