Hi, if you have problems chrooting snort, this can help:
I'm the author of makejail, which helps moving required
files in a chroot jail, I've tested it with snort, it
works perfectly on Debian woody, I've tested makejail
with other softs on OpenBSD.

Use the configuration script attached, it's not yet
in the tarball.

makejail: http://www.floc.net/makejail/

Send snort a SIGHUP twice whilst it's in the jail.  If it works, I'll be
damned impressed....  See http://www.snort.org/docs/faq.html#6.19

[FWIW: http://www.theadamsfamily.net/~erek/snort/cell/index.html has a lot of
the basic info on creating a chroot'ed jail for anything.]

Cheers!
