For snort (since version 2.0.1) I just download the tarball (from <http://www.snort.org>) and use: rpmbuild -ta snort-x.x.x.tar.gz ...this builds the binary RPM, no problem. I have not yet had time to do as much testing as I need to on the resulting RPMs, but I have not had any difficulties using them on RHL9, RHEL3 or RC1. -- Lamont Peterson <lamont@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Senior Instructor Guru Labs <http://www.gurulabs.com/>
