Hi, Looking at the wiki
http://www.ossec.net/wiki/Know_How:DatabaseOutput#Create_a_user_for_OSSEC and configuring mysql, I think there is a line missing, or at least comment that it might be needed eg., CREATE USER 'ossecuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'ossecpass'; before creating the database I suggest. regards Steven Jones Technical Specialist - Linux RHCE Victoria University, Wellington, NZ 0064 4 463 6272
