Initially I used backports.org to go from snort version 2.3.2 to 2.3.3.
So tonight I installed snort version 2.6.1.3 from source, using
checkinstall to create a Debian package and hacked the init script from
the original package.
I wasn't able to compile snort with "Flexible Response" (which was a
requirement) because one of the libraries this depends on is once again
out dated and there's no backport available.. and I was being lazy and
decided against compiling the required library from source.
I think OpenBSD is the way forward for my particular needs this time around.
Thanks for the feedback.
Regards,
David.
