Re: [Snort-users] Problems compiling with --enable-inline on CentOS

David,

My only guess is that "struct ether_addr" is not getting defined on your
system. Try editing libnet-headers.h (most likely in
/usr/include/libnet). At or around line 391, remove the #if
(!__GLIBC__) / #endif lines and see if that solves the problem. If not,
please repost results.

Thanks,
Todd
