Are you trying to install on windows or *nix?

But I should be able to build from source, at least according to one of the README files, correct?   I have started one 
build after installing the libpcap and other prereqs, and it started to take off and look like a build, then failed for 
the error below.   Where can I find the sfbpf library?


[root@x88022 snort]# rpmbuild -ta snort-2.9.7.5.tar.gz

Snort is 32bit for Window, but the remainder of the support programs are 64bit. There are 32bit and 64bit installation 
tutorials for Windows.

Kindest regards,

I am needing to install snort on approx.. 25 32bit Rhel 5 servers.  I see there is a 64bit rpm on the website.   Is 
there a 32bit package available?
