You are grepping for libcap, and snort is complaining that it needs libPcap (You are missing the P in between lib and cap). -----Original Message----- From: Alberto García Gómez [mailto:alberto () yumuri mtz sld cu] Sent: Friday, July 02, 2004 3:23 AM To: Joshua Berry; Nick Oliver; snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Installing Snort on a Red Hat 8 or 9 Maybe u don't read the entire message, check it out again and u'll see that I make this step already and the ver differs. indeed the ver thats snort requieres is lower than I have installed(by defaut) in my system ;-) ----- Original Message ----- From: Joshua Berry <mailto:jberry () PENSON COM> To: Alberto <mailto:alberto () yumuri mtz sld cu> García Gómez ; Nick Oliver <mailto:nwoliver () internetsecurityguru com> ; snort-users () lists sourceforge net <mailto:snort-users () lists sourceforge net> Sent: Friday, July 02, 2004 3:45 PM Subject: RE: [Snort-users] Installing Snort on a Red Hat 8 or 9 You are grepping for libcap, what you need is libpcap. rpm -qa | grep libpcap, see if that is installed. -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net <mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net> [mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net <mailto:snort-users-admin () lists sourceforge net> ] On Behalf Of Alberto García Gómez Sent: Friday, July 02, 2004 2:34 AM To: Nick Oliver; snort-users () lists sourceforge net <mailto:snort-users () lists sourceforge net> Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Installing Snort on a Red Hat 8 or 9 Check This checking for pcap_datalink in -lpcap... no ERROR!

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 <mailto: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-----
