Excuse me for reviving this thread.

I've been using Snort's DAQ module variable no-kernel-filters for a long
time, but recently switched to pfring_zc and got this error:

FATAL ERROR: Can't initialize DAQ pfring_zc (-1) -
pfring_zc_daq_initialize: unsupported variable(no-kernel-filters=1)#012

Why isn't this variable present on the ZC driver ? Am I missing something ?

Thanks,

Jose Vila.
