I understand that, it's just that your original post was a little... concise. As a non-developer/newbie it took me a little while to understand the where and the how. I just fleshed it out for other non-ossec veterans. If I sounded upset with you I apologize. I was feeling misled by the "Documentation" link on ossec.net which took me to the 1.0 documentation which didn't mention anything about additional pre-requisites.
Thanks for your help!
