Can anyone help me with why I would be getting this error after installing and compiling Snort and libpcap? I go to the directory where Snort resides, type snort [options], get command not found on any command I run. I tried Snort 1.6 and 1.8, on Mandrake 7.1, fresh install. http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
That'll be because the snort binary is not in your $PATH. And if you cd /the/directory/where/snort/lives and it *still* doesn't run, that's because '.' isn't in your $PATH. Try: cd /the/directory/where/snort/lives <return> ./snort [options] <return> Or, better still, make sure that the directory where snort lives is in your $PATH. You did do a 'make install', right? And set the prefix to be something useful when you ran configure?
