Christian, I didn't run into that error, but as a guess I'd recommend checking to see that your libxml2-dev library installed correctly. Try re-installing it from yum: "yum install libxml2-dev". If it says already installed, go through the list of other supporting packages and make sure they are installed. Last, run an update and boot your system afterwards. Then try the ./configure step again. Hope this helps. If it doesn't please reply to the snort users list. If you're not already on the Snort Users Mailing list, please consider joining. Lots of people WAY smarter than me out there. Thanks and happy snorting! Nick On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 9:44 AM, Christian Benjamin < christian.benjamin () infolink co tt> wrote:
Hi Nick, I have been following your guide to setup snort on a FC 13 box and I am getting some errors, I have searched high and wide for a solution but I am unable to obtain one I am hoping that you can help me.
