libntp

[Bryan Childs <bryan.childs () mercator com>]

Hi there everyone,

I'm trying a new build of snort 1.8.1 on a Mandrake 8.0 Linux install.

The line I'm passing to ./configure is this : 

./configure \
--bindir=/usr/bin \
--sbindir=/usr/sbin \
--sysconfdir=/etc/snort \
--with-mysql \
--with-snmp \
--enable-idmef \
--enable-smbalerts \
--enable-flexresp \
--with-libxml2-include=/usr/include


All of that seems pretty much ok to me - but when it runs I get a line which
starts complaining about a missing "libntp".

checking for ntp source directory (includes and libraries)... no
configure: error: ntp source directory not provided. Rerun configure using
--with-libntp-libraries=DIR


What on earth is libntp? Why is it needed?

And where can I get it? 

I've checked the Mandrake mirrors for a libntp rpm, and there doesn't appear
to be one, unless it's called something more obscure than
"libntp-something-something" :)

I've also tried to check rpmfind.net, but it doesn't appear to want to talk
to me at the moment...

Cheers in advance,

Bry
