Re: Problems with installation

[twig les <twigles () yahoo com>]

The script should be somewhere in the RPM but I don't
know that for sure so try simply dl'ing (into /tmp
maybe) the tarball from snort.org, unpacking it,
running the script there, and then rm -rf the snort
directory.

Of course if the rpm didn't have postgres support
compiled them this won't do you any good.
