I _believe_ the current OSSEC web interface reads from flat files generated by the core product on the server.
There is an option (during build) for the core OSSEC product to log to a MySQL or Postgres DB which would make the whole task much easier (IMO). I would start by installing the current OSSEC web interface and peeking at the PHP there. Good luck! I'm sure you'd get quite a few contributions if you were to utilize a database on the back end.

I'm not much of a developer myself, so I'd most probably need some help heading this off. First I need to understand how OSSEC interfaces with what database. Anyone know? Regards, Adriel T.
