1.) You have to configure your network gear to get the traffic to your nTop box. Mirroring, SPANing, hubs, netflow, sflow, whatever. It does not need an agent on hosts - in fact there's no such thing.
2.) you make the ntop.conf. The settings via web gui are stored in a db file.

I compiled and configured ntop on solaris 8 (SPARC), and it seems to be working for that host. I am able to see all the stats on its web page, rrd is enabled. Here are list of questions; 1. Is there a way to add hosts to be monitored on this installation by either deploying agent(if any) on clients or any configuration? Essentially I need to centralize monitoring than to install on each host that seem to have network problems. 2. I don't see any ntop.conf configuration file in recently download ntop, is the configuration stored in the database and the only way to access it is via web interface ? I am able to see configs on web interface and change the settings. Just wanted to know if there is a config file.
