Hi scott,

Yes I configured the database output also, like this:

 <database_output>
      <hostname>localhost</hostname>
      <port>3306</port>
      <username>ossecuser</username>
      <password>password</password>
      <database>ossec</database>
      <type>mysql</type>
  </database_output>

Like I said, you really can see that OSSEC sends SQL requests into mysql 
(viewable in mysql.log).

But they don't appear in the database... Is there a kind of time out or 
other parameter I should modify ?
