3.20 How do you get the latest Snort via cvs?

Snort can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key.

    cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snort.org:/cvsroot login

    cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snort.org:/cvsroot co snort
Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter.

You will need to issue the command ``sh ./autojunk.sh'' before starting ./configure.
