Re: Snort 2.9.0.3 & Phil Wood's modified libpcap

["Weir, Jason" <jason.weir () nhrs org>]

Good question, google was not conclusive....

The change file (goes back to 1994) http://www.tcpdump.org/libpcap-changes.txt doesn't mention mmap or ring buffer.

Anyone have definitive proof that the latest libpcap versions have the good stuff included
