You can also use the install guide on the site: https://snort.org/documents/snort-2-9-7-x-on-centos-6-x-and-7-x Hope this helps.

I would normally recommend the RPM route because it seemed it was more complete. Without being 100% sure it seemed the RPM version had all the correct SELinux settings as well as creating the correct user. The RPM does install to different directories but that’s no big thing. Having said that, the last time I updated, the Centos 6.5 Snort RPM was no longer available and I had to compile the snort-2.9.7.0-1.src.rpm and then do a yum update. If I had to start again, I think I would follow Jeremy’s advice and compile snort from source. Whatever issues you discover, you’ll be ready for them next time.

They will be more up to date and easier to replace/upgrade/tweak when the time comes, in addition to adding pfring if you need it. A quick down and dirty looks like this: yum Install the normal build tools install tcpdump/libpcap from source ldconifg yum -y install mysql-devel zlib zlib-devel pcre pcre-devel ldconfig install dnet from source ln -s /usr/local/lib/libdnet.1 /usr/lib/ ln -s /usr/local/lib/libdnet.1 /usr/lib64/ ldconfig install daq from source /usr/local/bin/daq-modules-config ldconfig install snort from source Links tcpdump/libpcap - http://www.tcpdump.org/#latest-release libdnet - http://libdnet.sourceforge.net/ snort/daq - https://www.snort.org/downloads On Tue, Mar 3, 2015 at 10:14 AM, Farnsworth, Robert <robert.farnsworth () hp com<mailto:robert.farnsworth () hp com>> wrote: I am getting ready to install SNORT on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5, I am a little confused on what packages need to be install with this version I am thinking the Fedora 18 is correct but am not sure.
