This is not the -release (or -stable) version of net/snort, which is 2.9.7.0. The version you mention, 2.9.7.3 was committed a month *after* 5.7 was released. > Installed from packages You are using -current packages with a -release, which is not supported. Please read FAQ 15.4.1. > Start by typing snort. Thanks. If you are starting snort manually, and not using the rc.subr(8) script included with the package to start the NIDS daemon, you must either use the -c option to point to /etc/snort/snort.conf to use snort as an NIDS or you must use the --daq-dir option on your command line to use snort manually. http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=136155094825083&w=2
