Works great from ports or compiled from source. There are limitations when using Snort on OpenBSD (especially when compared to Linux and IPS mode, etc.), but if you only want a plain IDS, then it's a fabulously stable platform.actually an openbsd developer, snort openbsd port's maintainer and me are working on snort as IPS, through divert socket, on openbsd. even if we miss so_rules *cough* *cough*
