Re: [Snort-users] Where's the libpcap library with the S. Krahmer patch?

as fas as I remember you won't need the patch for actual kernel
versions (2.4 or higher).

And maybe it would be a better idead to use the bonding device.
Here you can specify which interfaces should be grouped to a bond
device and sniff on that. 

If you have a seperate network to insert the alerts in a database
it would be a good idea to remove this interface from the list.
(The probabilty is high to find a matching pattern in the database
inserts and thus end up in an endless loop...)

Best regards

Dirk
