These are the steps for creating a tar for distributing snare
with installsnare.pl.

1. create a directory called "snare".

   mkdir snare

2. copy the snare files into it, and dont forget the modified config files.

  cp kernel-smp-2.4.21-15.EL.SNARE096.i686.rpm snare/
  cp snare-core-0.9.6-1.i386.rpm snare/
  cp snare-gui-0.9.6-1.i386.rpm snare/
  cp audit.conf snare/
  cp grub.conf snare/

3. Determine the right name for the tar file to create. it might need
   to be added to the installsnare.pl program. Use the 'tar' command 
   to create the tar file:

  tar -cvf snare4rh9.tar snare/

4. Zip the file up. 

   gzip -d snare4rh9.tar

5. Things to watch out for:
   1. The installsnare program needs to know what you named the tar.
   2. If you need to create a grub.conf you should use one from snare for
      that operating system and modify the line
     default=1  to read default=0
