Tiberiu,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. It looks as though after
moving the files into the correct place and running the command you
mentioned that nfsen is now aware of my imported data (this is reflected in
the web interface as well) as you can see in the output below.

Now, how do I get nfsen to regenerate its pretty graphs against all this
newly-imported flow data? :-)
