Comment 3 for bug 410980

I believe from workign on this that its simply that MySql, postgress or whatever DB chosen needs to be configured. Seems like the install could ignore that portion and let the user setup config after. Does seem to work consistently when installing from source but there are a few differing install guides.

Would love to hear how anyones fixed this. Need a quick and simple install to deploy many snort sensors on, my favorite, Ubuntu. Always use a hardened Linux for outside but Ubuntu seems like enough for the internal and potential sacrificial lamb for internal users.

Would also like to collaborate with someone on after a threshold of snort alerts kicking someone to a honeypot.

Thanks,
D
