There's no reason that you can't just download and install Snort on Mac OS X. But if you don't want to install the development system, or never seem to have luck compiling from source, HenWen is a Mac GUI front end. As HenWen also includes a snort binary, you could also install HenWen just to get that and throw the rest of it away. How can I type Edit /etc/snort/snort.conf on Mac terminal and type inside it.

Try using
#./configure -no-cpp-precomp
I haven't tried this myself but it often works. For more hints read the porting tips on the fink and gnu-darwin web sites
goodluck

Me again - I take it by header files you mean *.h files in the raw unpack? Just copy the 8 files into the directory you mentioned, right? Or do I need to do the INTSTALL as well? (No - haven't done that, since I think this will overwrite the Apple files, and I don't want to do that)
Thanks in advance.

Not sure which files you are referring to when you mention 'the 8 files', but the ones I linked to in pcap_inc.tar.gz has just five (ethertype.h, gencode.h, pcap-int.h, pcap-namedb.h, and pcap.h) which define stuff in the libraries under /usr/lib which Apple provided. These five should be placed under /usr/local/include then try your make again.

Spelling dictionaries for Internet Explorer 11 Release Preview. Internet Explorer 11 Release Preview brings the 'best in class' spelling engine and dictionaries used by Microsoft to the browser. Internet Explorer 11 Release Preview also supports autocorrection or 'correction-while-you-type'. As we all know, the Internet Explorer is a software owned by Microsoft and comes by default on all PC running on Windows OS. Being a Mac user whose PC runs on OS X, you do not have access to Microsoft software for your Mac PC. Well, good news you can now download the Internet.

Word processing software for mac free. Thanks for the header files. it works! Snort installs. now it's just a matter of getting it to work the way I would like it to! :)
