I would suggest the following: When snort is called as you do it may use the previously installed snort and not the new compiled version because make install installs the binary in another place as Suse's version and Suse's version is in the path first. Uninstall any previous version with rpm -e snort (use the name of the suse package). You also might change the directories on the ./configure commandline and recompile snort. This should fix your prob. Servus, Sandro

When I run the configure script with mysql or postgresql support like ./configure --with-mysql it runs through without errors, and give me when it checks for mysql this: checking for pcap_datalink in -lpcap... yes checking for mysql... yes checking for compress in -lz... yes ok! fine till here, then I do make and make install then when I try to start snort with snort -i ppp0 -c /<snortdir>/snort.conf I get the following: database: compiled support for ( ) database: configured to use mysql database: mysql support is not compiled in this copy and honestly I dont have a clue why it's not working. I tried the same with postgresql and it results in the same error. Do I do something terribly wrong? I'm compiling in a directory where snort is allready installed! Maybe that got something to do with it? Anybody out there who could help me?
