Update of /export/home/ntop/ntop/plugins
In directory jabber:/tmp/cvs-serv6902/plugins

Modified Files:
        icmpPlugin.c lastSeenPlugin.c netflowPlugin.c nfsPlugin.c 
        pdaPlugin.c rrdPlugin.c sflowPlugin.c 
Log Message:

Inactive setup patch for plugins.

Added a flag to the setup data structure (this required rolling all plugin version
to a new "2.0" value).  This flag identifies those plugins that can be invoked
while INACTIVE to setup values, configuration, etc.

This eliminates the need to activate a plugin, change the configuration, deactivate it
and then finally reactivate it in the desired configuration.

Essentially this differentiates between the plugins that: 
 
A) Present reports via their web interfaces (e.g. Last Seen or ICMP) 
   and MUST be active to be meaningful.

and

B) Present configuration pages via their web interfaces (e.g. xFlow, RRD)
   which can be meaningful even if inactive.

-----Burton (ref 159)

PS: Yes, the return to plugins item (158) is still missing from RRD.
    I have the code, it's part of the big rrd change, 157, waiting to be checked in.

PPS: While I was in there, I cleaned up the descriptions of the plugins.  Both a
     little English, but mostly just to make them all consistent with each other.
