Hi Scott,

Yes I did configure the "database output", otherwise we wouldn't see the 
actions in mysql.log, these are the parameters I used:

    <database_output>
        <hostname>localhost</hostname>
<username>ossecuser</username>
        <password>password</password>
        <database>ossec</database>
        <type>mysql</type>
    </database_output>

There must be something wrong with mysql, is ther something (timeout or 
maxConnection) that I should change ?
