I have compiled snort_inline version 2.4.5a and the size of snort_inline binary comes to be 1844485 as given by ls -l.I need to reduce the size of this binary.When I do an ldd on snort_inline it also lists libpcap,but libpcap is not needed for snort_inline as far as I know.Please help me out.
I think you'll find that you do indeed need libpcap... Take a look at the libpcap page - libpcap is a system-independent interface for user-level packet capture. libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network monitoring. Applications include network statistics collection, security monitoring, network debugging, etc. Mike- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
