I have put together a document for installing Snort 2.0.0 on RH9 running with Apache 2 (With PHP), MySQL 4, and Acid. If you are not familiar with Intrusion detection systems and want to learn about them this could help. More info on Snort can be found at www.snort.org
Hope it is useful to someone.

$alert_user ="root";for grant INSERT,SELECT on snort.* to root@xxxxxxxxx;
i am not sure if this is a good choice
# grep mysql ~/.snortrc
output database: log, mysql, user=snort password=blabla dbname=snort host=localhost
-- shrek-m
