Fedora Extras is still on download.fedora.us and some (but not all) of
the mirrors listed on
www.fedora.us. fedora.us folks have confirmed
that some of the mirrors that used to carry Fedora Linux (the
predecessor to Fedora Extras, /not/ Fedora Core) seem to have stopped.
If you want snort, help QA the RPM package on
https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=782 ! Get
http://www.starken.com/snort/snort-2.0.2-0.fdr.6.src.rpm and rpm -ivh
snort*src.rpm && rpmbuild -ba /usr/source/redhat/SPECS/snort.spec !
So yes, my question's been answered but I hope ther is a better answer
for your question -- about where snort and tripwire packages for Fedora
can be found -- in the future.
For snort (since version 2.0.1) I just download the tarball (from
<
http://www.snort.org>) and use:
rpmbuild -ta snort-x.x.x.tar.gz
...this builds the binary RPM, no problem. I have not yet had time to
do as much testing as I need to on the resulting RPMs, but I have not
had any difficulties using them on RHL9, RHEL3 or RC1.
