Re: Minimal Redhat 7.3 install

For a snort sensor, you're awfully close if you select custom
install, and remove all groups except networking.

That won't include libpcap, so if you don't build your snort rpm
statically you'll need to add that; and the result will be missing
some other conveniences you might care about, say screen, lsof, like
that.

But base 7.3 + Networking is very close to sufficient. It's also
still way more than you need, I've not tried to nail down a truly
minimal install for this.
