Chill out - I frankly don't give a damn what happens when it's closing down.
And you shouldn't either.

While it's possible to patch the util.c functions to skip the messages if
ntop is shutting down, why waste the effort - a few instructions for each
packet vs. a couple of messages... no way Jose!

If you do a controlled shutdown, via the web interface, that should be a
clean shutdown.  But if you control-c the process - all bets are off.

Please STOP reporting ANY problems after you control-c

Subject: [Ntop-dev] **ERROR** accessMutex() called 'scanIdleLoop' with
an UN-INITIALIZED mutex [EMAIL PROTECTED]:487]


Hi all,

started the newest CVS version with the following script:

rm -r /home/markus/ntop/*
#ifconfig tap0 up 10.20.30.40 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.20.30.255
tcpsic -s rand -d 127.0.0.1 -m 1 >/dev/null 2>&1 &
#nprobe -i lo >/dev/null 2>&1 &
/usr/local/bin/ntop -n -u markus -P ~markus/ntop -A
/usr/local/bin/ntop -n -u markus -P ~markus/ntop -K -t 5 -M -i eth0,lo -b -z

The tcpsic is for doing a little noise on the lo interface, not more. After
a while I wanted to add another host to eth0 and ssh'ed to it. But the host
wasn't added in any view. After my usual Ctrl-C there were the following
messages:

I tried it with and without the -b and the -z-flag, everytime the same
messages.
