Package: snort-pgsql
Version: 2.1.2-2
Severity: normal
When installing 'snort-pgsql' the user gets asked this:
=====
Snort needs a configured database to log to.
Please create the database structure now, using the following
command:
cd /usr/share/doc/snort-pgsql/contrib
zcat create_pgsql.gz | psql -U <user> -h <host> -W <databasename>
Fill in the correct values for the user, host, and database names.
PostgreSQL will prompt you for the password.
After you created the database structure, press 'ok' to continue.
=====
Two problems:
(a) The time this gets displayed the directory
/usr/share/doc/snort-pgsql does not yet exist.
(b) The file is called create_postgresql.gz instead of create_pgsql.gz.
Wishlist: create the database for the user automatically. :)
