I tried the command an hour ago: This is what I recive: [root@snort_jr_dmz snortinstall]# yum install openssl Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Base Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers openssl is installed and is the latest version. No actions to take I cant belive this is happening to me.... I found that it says the same about allmount all the dependencis in looking for. I cant belive I will need to reinstall a sensor just because of dependencis problems. Now I understand why nobody uses Linux. Maybe to insert the distribution cd's and install every package ? I must get it working !!!

Juan, try using yum to install any missing packages. Yum is new with fedora core 1. the command would be something like this to install ssl: yum install openssl if you don't have yum, you will probably need to get it off an ftp site or the cds you installed with. This way you will get all the dependencies with the package and a lot fewer headaches. You will still have to install your snort rpm by hand. I hope this helps some.

[snip tale of woe] All the problems you're experiencing are essentially down to your self-acknowledged lack of experience with Linux distributions and commonly-used packages within. None of your problems are snort-specific, so I respectfully suggest that you get some books and/or training on the distro you're using, then revisit setting up a snort-based NIDS. You need to learn to walk before you can run. As far as recommended books: <http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/>, <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/learnredhatentlnx>, <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxnut4/>, <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/esa3/>, <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/msql2/>. Alternatively, if you just want a working NIDS, you might be better-off getting your employer to shell out some cash for one of the ready-built snort-based NIDS appliances, such as Sourcefire.
