Default Snort on RHEL 5

I previously installed a Snort RPM. Everything looked good and stats were
being collected. However, I had to pound out a few lines in the config file
before the install would work.

This bothered me and I found out that I have to recompile with the zlib
option. I did and it appeared to install. However I cannot find the binary!
I did a "find / -name snort -print" but no binary showed up!

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ray

Try
# find / -iname "*snort*"
For example if the binary was named Snort2 that would pick it up too.

BTW how did you install? make install or though a package manager?
