Unable to start snort version 1.8.6 in Daemon mode

Dear snort-users,
        I compiled snort 1.8.6 for IBM AIX 4.3.3 OS. It works in interactive mode. But
if I try to start it in daemon mode using option "-D" in the command, it fails
to start, reporting the following problem:
  syslog: Initializing daemon mode
  syslog: FATAL ERROR: ERROR: OpenPcap() device en0 open:    recv_ack: bind
error 0xd

But without -D option, everything works well. In Snort version 1.8.3, I didn't
face this problem but on version 1.8.4, this problem existed. I didn't try
version 1.8.5.

What is the solution for it?

Also, parsing of some of the rules having lines with the word "flow:" fail in
interactive mode. How to solve it?

Rakesh
