Does anyone run Bro build as a 64-bit binary on a 64-bit platform?
Thanks,

I'm running Bro 1.5 on x86_64 Linux. No obvious issues here -- except with
broccoli.
It has been running fine on CentOS 5.3 x86_64 since late 2009.

I'm running Bro 1.5 on x86_64 Linux.
Current development version on x86_64 FreeBSD 8.0 here, also with no
apparent problems.
No obvious issues here -- except with broccoli.
What's the broccoli issue? Can you file a tracker ticket for that
please?

I am as well.. but I haven't had any problems with broccoli.
Ok, that's partly why I asked. It looks like broccoli needs to be built with -fPIC. I'll file a ticket in the tracker.

I built 32- and 64-bit RPM's of bro 1.4 without needing to force -fPIC
anywhere. I haven't had a chance to update them to 1.5 yet, so it's
possible that has changed.

I encountered underruns and corruption while using bropipe to send
datatypes involving an int (count, port...) to Bro. The underlying issue
seems to be that broccoli is sending a 32-bit int and Bro is expecting a
64-bit one.
In what is probably the Wrong Way(tm) to approach the problem, I patched
broccoli to send 64-bit ints with the high 32 bits zeroed.
Did you have Bro built with --enable-int64?

working fine for me. However, I do trace analysis with it without using
broccoli or cluster....

Initially I did. That seems to be what caused the problem. Rebuilding
without --enable-int64 appears to have resolved the underrun errors in bro.
Yet another ticket needs filed for that one.
