Hi Olivier,
I followed the exact instructions in the guide and tried to install the rpm
packages first and that itself gave the following error -
Error: Package: perl-Net-Pcap-0.16-1.el5.rf.i386 (rpmforge)
Requires: libpcap.so.0.9.4
Error: Package: perl-Net-IPv4Addr-0.10-3.el5.noarch (epel)

Error: Package: perl-Apache-Htpasswd-1.8-2.el5.noarch (epel)
Requires: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8)
The error is same in both cases either i try to install through rpm or the
yum packages... So, i m completely stuck.
Also, i tried the ZEN version too but without GUI, it is tough for me to
get things started since I am more of a Windows person :(
Thanks for all your time and help.
Regards
Ahmad
