Re: PF_RING and DAQ compile (0.6.2, and 2.0.0)

Thank you for your answer Tim, I can only assume that you answered my
first question on the Meteflows group. I'm getting an error "FATAL ERROR:
Can't start DAQ (-1) - pfring_open(): unable to open device 'eth1'. Please
use -i <device>!" when I try to start snort using pfring. I thought maybe
is was due to the DAQ compile error. I moved snort off the VM, and on the
physical host, and disabled selinux. I still get the same error. Would it
be due to the default bnx2 driver, or pfring license issue? Any help is
greatly appreciated.


ethtool -i eth2
driver: bnx2
version: 2.2.3
firmware-version: bc 1.9.6
bus-info: 0000:0f:04.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: no

Those configuration options should no longer be necessary, they were
used in a much older version of DAQ that was bundled with the pf_ring
module.

You can take them out or safely ignore the warning:
"configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-libpfring-includes,
--with-libpfring-libraries"

I'll see if we can pull them out of the instructions as well to avoid
confusion in the future.

Has anyone had any success compiling DAQ using this switch
--with-libpfring-includes, and --with-libpfring-libraries? Using the
meteflows site It says to use these switches, but they are unknown to
the DAQ
./configure command. And they also do not show up using the ./configure
-h.
Any help here would be great. Thank you!
