Hi Sheahan. I installed yesterday and had the same problem with my red hat
7.1
Folow these steps:

get ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/libpcap.tar.Z
Put the file named libpcap.tar.Z into /root  directory
cd /root
gzip -d libpcap.tar.Z
tar -xvf libpcap.tar
cd libpcap-0.4
./configure
mkdir /usr/local/include      <---------- IMPORTANT!
mkdir /usr/local/include/net <---------- IMPORTANT!
make
make install
make install-incl

Subject: [Snort-users] install problem


Hello,

I am currently running Snort 1.8 on Red Hat Linux 7.0.

To make sure I was at the latest version of Snort, I downloaded
snort-1.8.1-RELEASE.tar.gz from the download section of Snort.org (I was
told there was a newer build). I run ./configure and it seems to work fine.
But when I run make, I get the text below. Does anyone know what I might be
doing wrong or how I can fix? It seems to mention "pcap" a few times but I
don't see anything about this in the documentation. Thanks!

I run make and get:

checking for u_int32_t... (cached) yes
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
creating ./config.status
cd . \
  && CONFIG_FILES=Makefile CONFIG_HEADERS= /bin/sh ./config.status
creating Makefile
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I/usr/include/pcap  -DENABLE_SSL  -g -O2
-Wall -c snort.c
