Hello again,

I have a question for any Mac snort users.

I'm trying to update snort from v2.3.2 to v2.8.3.2 on a couple of OS
XServes which are version 10.2.8 and I'm getting the following  
'make' error:

<snip>
../src/output-plugins -I../../src/detection-plugins
-I../../src/dynamic-plugins -I../../src/preprocessors
-I../../src/preprocessors/flow -I../../src/preprocessors/portscan
-I../../src/preprocessors/flow/int-snort
-I../../src/preprocessors/HttpInspect/include
-I../../src/preprocessors/Stream5 -I../../src/target-based
-I/usr/include/mysql -DENABLE_MYSQL  -g -O2 -Wall -DDYNAMIC_PLUGIN
-DDETECTION_OPTION_TREE -c sfhashfcn.c
../../src/decode.h:740: undefined type, found `uint32_t'
<snip>

a lot more decode.h errors follow.

Can any Mac users tell me either
1. How to solve the above or
2. What is the most recent snort version that will run on OSX 10.2.8

10.2.8?  You can't upgrade beyond that?  That's not even supported by  
Apple anymore, afaik.  I know we support 10.4 and 10.5 with Snort.

In your Snort tarball, look in the doc/ directory at the "INSTALL"  
file.  There are some OSX specific commands in there.
