I followed Patrick Harpers guide, http://www.snort.org/docs/setup_guides/snort_base_SSL.pdf , for CentOS, Snort, MySQL and PHP. It was great. I have always used BSD, but lately have been finding myself using more and more Linux. I would recommend this guide, and Patrick Harper has an outstanding guide.

Hi all - I am having one heck of a time getting a 64Bit distro to run Snort on. My current Snort box runs on Windows and I really want to stop using Windows. I have tried my favorite Distro - SlackWare (10.2) and the 64Bit port and neither has native support for my SATA controller. So I went on a hunt for a distro to install to run Snort on. So far I have tried Fedora Core 4 64Bit (Would not complete boot up - ever, even tried re-installing) CentOS 4.2 64Bit (Same results as FC4) OpenSuSe 10 64Bit (CD MD5's never matched the downloads - downloaded it 3 times from different servers) Ubuntu 5.10 64Bit (Could not get MySQL running - much less Snort) I am not very familiar with FreeBSD (or any *BSD) but if the strongest response to this is BSD then I'll have to dive into it. Ultimately I just want to run a secure 64Bit Linux box that I can run Snort/MySQL/BASE on. So with that in mind - What are your suggestions?
