That's all I know. I don't know yet why it causes daq to crash snort when 
that support is compiled in. libpcap-1.0.0 didn't have these 'remote 
capture' features (I think).

Yes, so would I. Now that I got the binary distribution 'stabilized' 
enough, I can spend more time trying to figure out why it crashes under 
RHEL5.5 when 'remote capture' is enabled inside libpcap 1.1.1.
