[Madhu Rao <k.madhurao.123 () gmail com>]

Hi Folks

Has anyone had Luck downloading and compiling snort 2.9.8.0 and get it
working on Latest MAC OS X El Capitan ?
I have a macbook pro running El Capitan. (OSX 10.11.3)

I See the following Errors when I run Snort.

$ sudo snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf --daq pcap --daq-mode passive -i eth0
-k none

pcap DAQ configured to passive.

Acquiring network traffic from "eth0".

Reload thread starting...

Reload thread started, thread 0x700000081000 (41553)

ERROR: Can't start DAQ (-1) - BIOCSETIF failed: Device not configured!

Fatal Error, Quitting..


BTW - when I configured DAQ, this was the outcome.

$cd daq-2.0.6

./configure --disable-afpacket-module

...

Build AFPacket DAQ module.. : no
Build Dump DAQ module...... : yes
Build IPFW DAQ module...... : yes
Build IPQ DAQ module....... : no
Build NFQ DAQ module....... : no
Build PCAP DAQ module...... : yes
Build netmap DAQ module.... : no


Any pointers appreciated.
