Hello,

since you are in the /etc directory there is no need to issue a command with ./ .
Are you sure that the installation of snort is the correct one?

In order to verify it yourself, if it is under your /etc folder then check the output of:
ls -l | grep snort

either you won't see any output, which means that snort is not there or you will see an alternative name for the snort executable.

You can type also the command:
which snort

to verify the folder that the executable is located.
