[Ntop] starting ntop

[Mark Puskar]

I'm a new ntop user. When I start ntop as root  on an ubuntu  machine 
the process gets as far as "Initializing ntop" then stops. The ntop
process is in D state. If I start ntop as a non-privileged user and use 
the -P switch to set the db file path to /tmp then ntop will  start.
I'm guessing I've got a problem with file ownership but I can't figure 
out where. I've set /usr/local/var/ntop and /usr/local/share/ntop
to be nobody:nogroup without any luck. I've set /usr/local/var/ntop and 
/usr/local/share/ntop to ntop:root and ntop:ntop and
ran ntop with -u ntop without any luck. Help.
