There are several versions there, one should fit your needs. It is a paper that will require you to reload your machine, but will provide the correct information necessary to successfully install both RH9 and Snort. nwo - ----- Original Message ----- From: Alberto García Gómez To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2004 1:24 PM Subject: [Snort-users] Installing Snort on a Red Hat 8 or 9 I'm trying to install the lastest version of snort on a red hat 8 and a red hat 9, and it's asking by libcap 0.6 but red hat 8 and 9 install 1.0 by default, what I can do?? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0.2 iQA/AwUBQOTGqoHa2qg1FTg0EQKS5wCggyrV2gt9YnkuQ+nAnEVdKLxyj3cAoJcj 4VTMq2yAm6m0jcDDyiGjTolC =HlQS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
