RE: where to find libpcap

["Patrick S. Harper" <patrick () internetsecurityguru com>]

I just noticed something, why in the world are you installing snort-1.6.3?
Go to snort.org and get the latest version, they are on 2.3.0.

I am not sure about mandrake but there should be a command to automatically
downlaod and install libcap. for example:
SUSE: type the command yast -i libpcap
Debian: type command apt-get install libpcap
 
you could also download the libpcap library and install using the usual:
./configure
make
make install
 
check http://www.tcpdump.org/
