Re: Uninstalling Snort

[k vijay sai prashanth <vijaysaiprashanth () gmail com>]

Hello All,

I get an error message of "-bash: ./configure: Permission denied" when I
try to do ./configure on libdnet directory. I extracted the files using
winRAR in windows and then copied the files to RHEL5 using winSCP.

Could someone please explain to me what I am doing wrong? I feel totally
out of control and I don't like it. :(

Regads,
Prashanth
