Re: snort-inline vs. snort with inline ??

["Will Metcalf" <william.metcalf () gmail com>]

We kept snort-inline around after the integration of the code into
vanilla snort for a couple of reasons.  If you are just looking for
the core inline functionality fine, use snort --enable-inline. The SF
guy's spend a lot of time and money, running each snort release
through the QA ringer, things that I cannot do with my little pII 350.
 If you really wish to see what differs take a look at the change logs
on the snort-inline.sf.net website, and take a look at the
README.INLINE in the source.

Regards,

Will
