+OpenSnitch is a GNU/Linux interactive application firewall inspired by
+Little Snitch.
+
+Opensnitch requires the opensnitchd rc script to execute upon startup.
+That is, add the following line to /etc/rc.local:
+[ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.opensnitchd ] && /etc/rc.d/rc.opensnitchd start
+
+To install the eBPF process monitor module (requires kernel-source),
+pass in eBPF=yes to the SlackBuild.
+
+The eBFP module additionally requires kernel support for KProbes
+(kernel probes) and syscalls tracing. README.SLACKWARE contains
+instructions for compiling a kernel with these features.
