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.

You are using -current packages with a -release, which is not 
supported.  Please read FAQ 15.4.1.

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.
