Hi All,

I'm trying to re-compile Snort 2.1.2 with my program (Preprocessor) - I've followed the usual steps as mentioned in the README.PLUGINS. But when I try to make, Here's the error I get referring to some file I never disturbed, as far as I know. Please help me identify what that is for and how to solve it?

I'd appreciate any help to get me going.
