Hello Ahmad,
Plz see my response inline.



Rahul,

By default snort install snort exe file into path/bin/snort and conf files
+
rules into /etc/snort/..

No it is not putting snort conf + rules under /etc/snort while gmake
install.

If you want to compile snort to store conf or exe files somewhere you will
have to use prefix something like that. better to use first
./configure --help|grep prefix ..etcc


I tried this too prefix=/home/sadha/snort

one bin/
and man/
are there

what to do that?

Thanks and Regards,
-sadha

| Hello all,
|
| I've compiled and installed Snort in HP-UX.
|
| Snort version = 2.0.1
|
| prefix path = /opt/snort
|
| under that i'm able to find only bin/snort and man/...
|
| Not able to locate etc/snort.conf.
|
| But it is in <src>/etc/
|
| snort.conf file refers "rules" dir.
|
| My Q! is there any bug in snort that won't create etc/snort.conf and
rules
| dir under installation path or
| do we need to move manually to the installation path?
|
| and no need to use snort.conf file(all available in cmd line options of
| snort)?
|
| Plz reply me asap.
|
| Advance thanks.
| sadha
