Hello to all,<br><br>I am an Intrusion Detection Researcher from
Greece. I try to create an experimental setup, in order to test data
fusion methods for combining alerts from different IDSs.<br><br>I am trying to setup Bro IDS on an Ubuntu
7.10 system. I have tried both 1.2 and 1.3 versions and I get the same error when I run the ./configure command :<br><br>checking for local pcap library... not found<br>checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no<br>checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no
<br>configure: error: see the INSTALL doc for more info<br><br>I guess I am missing something. I have Snort installed on the same system, I hope this does not create a problem.<br><br>Whoever can help, please post to me a probable solution.
