Try ./configure --with-libpcap=/usr/local when compiling snort. If it
still fails then the library was probably compiled statically. If that is the case, post back and I will tell you how to make it a shared object. I think I had this problem a few years ago.

I've downloaded and extracted libpcap-0.9.20060417.tar.gz. I then
run:
./configure make make install I then downloaded and extracted snort-2.6.1.1.tar.gz. I then run: ./configure make That's where it blows up. Here is the error: <snip> checking for pcap_datalink in -lpcap... no ERROR! Libpcap library/headers not found, go get it from http://www.tcpdump.org or use the --with-libpcap-* options, if you have it installed in unusual place </snip> Any ideas why the headers would be missing? Header files are identified with the .h extension correct? Where are these supposed to
reside on the system? I'm running CentOS 4 with 2.6.9-42.0.3.EL kernel. Thanks in advance. - Jesse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
