I have compiled several versions of NTOP on a few different machines all running RH7.2 and am running into exactly the same problem.
When I run NTOP as a daemon (use the -d ) switch, The layout of the website is completely different and looks like a much older version, i.e. doesn't look like the nice pretty interface that we're all used to by now. (The HTML when I view source is completely different.) Another problem is that none of the graphics load, it's almost like it's using completely different html when running as a daemon. Running it without the switch, well, it runs flawlessly, except for the fact that once the TCP hash gets to above 32768 NTOP breaks but I understand it's a limitation of the software... Any ideas? I tried different machines to rule out memory or hardware issues. All three machines have had 512MB of RAM and 550-1Ghz Intel PIII. When compiling, I follow the instructions in the BUILT-NTOP.txt file to the letter. I honestly don't think it's a hardware issue since the problem is identical across three separate machines: OS: RH7.2 install from CD wish SSHD and Apache aside from normal system stuff. Hardware: Intel Motherboards with processors ranging from 550Mhz - 1Ghz PIII. RAM: 128MB - 512MB NTOP: v2.0.1. MT i686-pc-linux. Network: tried it on several different network sizes, from 10 hosts all the way up to a medium ISP @ 100Mbps.
