A little more info would be nice. How about the full error, the version of snort, relevant info from your snort.conf 
and the full syntax of the command you are using to start snort.

So this error it still a unsolved after almost 3 years? I've googled for hours 
digging through old posts and never have seen a reply to anything other than 
snort under windows.

I guess I'll submit a bug report then.

I'm trying to run snort on linux and I get what appears to be the
"infamous" OpenPcap() error in /var/log/messages.

I've seen lots of references to running under windows and updating wincap
and such and references with no solid answers to HP-UX questions.

I'm running libpcap 0.7.1 and Gentoo linux 1.4rc3.

Is there an answer to this problem? If so can you fill me in please? I'm
stuck!

Thanks,
Robert
