Starting Intrusion Database System: SNORT
/etc/init.d/snort: pidof: command not found


it could be that you don't command 'pidof' is not installed. Or it isn't 
in your path. Try the following

export PATH=$PATH:/sbin (put this in the script if you want). 

or...

[...snip...]

         if [ "`/sbin/pidof $SNORT_PATH/snort`" ]; then

In all of my systems pidof command is located within /sbin it could be 
different on your system, change it respectively.

 Cheers!
