Bom dia, essa instalação pode também se aplicar ao Debian 11 sem "variações"?

Olá José,

 

Eu executei a instalação completa no Debian 11.6  netinst e funcionou 100%!!

I'd love to see something about how the logger works. The snort instructions do a really poor job of telling you how to set the logger up in snort.lua.

For me, at step 4 things didn't quite go as is described in the tutorial. WHen I entered ./bootstrap I got this:

[code]+ autoreconf -ivf --warnings=allautoreconf: export WARNINGS=allautoreconf: Entering directory '.'autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettextautoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4autoreconf: configure.ac: tracingautoreconf: running: libtoolize --copy --forcelibtoolize: putting auxiliary files in '..'.libtoolize: copying file '../ltmain.sh'libtoolize: putting macros in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS, 'm4'.libtoolize: copying file 'm4/libtool.m4'libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltoptions.m4'libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltsugar.m4'libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltversion.m4'libtoolize: copying file 'm4/lt~obsolete.m4'autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Intltoolautoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gtkdocautoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf --forceconfigure.ac:27: warning: The macro `AC_PROG_CC_C99' is obsolete.configure.ac:27: You should run autoupdate../lib/autoconf/c.m4:1659: AC_PROG_CC_C99 is expanded from...configure.ac:27: the top levelautoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoheader --forceautoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy --force-missingconfigure.ac:29: installing './ar-lib'configure.ac:26: installing './compile'configure.ac:34: installing './config.guess'configure.ac:34: installing './config.sub'configure.ac:19: installing './install-sh'configure.ac:34: error: required file './ltmain.sh' not foundconfigure.ac:19: installing './missing'api/Makefile.am: installing './depcomp'parallel-tests: installing './test-driver'autoreconf: error: automake failed with exit status: 1[/code]

I didnt notice it so proceeded by entering: ./configure. All I got was this:
