Cd to /usr/ports/security/snort/ directory:

% make -DWITH_MYSQL (-DWITH_WHATEVER ELSE YOU NEED) install clean

(To see what your options are:
% less /usr/ports/security/snort/Makefile and search for "if defined".)

You're done.

When you want to upgrade:

% portupgrade -m -DWITH_MYSQL snort  (of course you have to install
portupgrade first, if you haven't already - % % make install clean in
the /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade directory.)
