Hi,
Since NTOP does not compile anymore under MinGW (at least directly), I would like to compile it using VC++ 6.0.
If you want to updated the MinGW port please do and I'll commit it.
As of today it's stable on my server. I have fixed several problems in the past month. The point is the following: the ntop code is the same but a little problem on Linux is unnoticed whereas on Win leads to a crash. Since version 2.1 I have replaced all the memory-copy functions to memory-copy-with-boundary-check so this should guarantee you against buffer overflows (that are the most common problem).
I have 2 questions.
1. It was said that the MinGW version was not as stable as other compile
release. Is it the same for a VC++ compiled version? Can it be considered
stable enough to run in prod on a Win2k server?
2. Is there some documentations available on the steps required to compile
NTOP using VC++ 6.0?
None. Anyway it's simple. Create a new project, add the ntop source that you fetch from CVS, download the source of required libs (gdbm,png...) then you compile and generate ntop. Make sure that WIN32 is defined by your project.
Cheers, Luca
Thanks
Mike
