Hello,

1.0 and 1.1 are indeed incompatible. But you can install both
library versions parallel without interferring with other
programs that depend on version 1.1:

tar -xvzf libnet-1.0.2a.tar.gz
cd Libnet-1.0.2a/
mkdir /usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a
make -s
make test
make -w install


Do NOT add /usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a to any ld.so.conf file.
Compile snort_inline as follows:

./configure --with-libnet-includes=/usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a/include 
--with-libnet-libraries=/usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a/lib --enable-flexresp --enable-inline

or maybe your system requires the following:

CPPFLAGS="-DLIBNET_LIL_ENDIAN" ./configure --with-libnet-includes=/usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a/include 
--with-libnet-libraries=/usr/local/Libnet-1.0.2a/lib--enable-flexresp --enable-inline

and so on.

Bye, bye,

Juergen
