I sent two pcap files directly to Luca. 

In the meantime I compiled and installed ntop on another server to verify that 
there isn't a problem if the recording of the probe and the analysis of the 
flow takes place on the same server. Unfortunately there was the same behavior 
as before: After some seconds, ntop crashes...

In /var/log/messages I found to following information:

Feb  9 12:24:59 dtsmo1 kernel: [ 2858.708801] ntop[4279]: segfault at 19e ip 
00007fae8933de8e sp 00007fae7ff58310 error 4 in 
libntopreport-4.1.2.so[7fae8930e000+7f000]
Feb  9 12:25:07 dtsmo1 kernel: [ 2866.394141] ntop[4267]: segfault at 18 ip 
00007fae8893b76c sp 00007fae7ccc38b0 error 4 in 
libc-2.11.1.so[7fae888c4000+17a000]

nProbe was started with the following parameters on the existing server:

sudo /usr/local/bin/nprobe -V 9 -i eth0 -n 192.168.1.97:2055 -T "%IPV4_SRC_ADDR 
%IPV4_DST_ADDR %IPV4_NEXT_HOP %INPUT_SNMP %OUTPUT_SNMP %IN_PKTS %IN_BYTES 
%FIRST_SWITCHED %LAST_SWITCHED %L4_SRC_PORT %L4_DST_PORT %TCP_FLAGS %PROTOCOL 
%SRC_TOS %SRC_AS %DST_AS %SRC_MASK %DST_MASK %L7_PROTO %L7_PROTO_NAME" -b 1


Is there a list of all dependencies for ntop and nProbe? I just want to make 
sure that I don't forget anything and this is the reason for the problem.

Thanks. Stefan

Stefan
are you able to capture enough packets sent by nProbe to ntop (full packets 
please) and send them to me on a pcap file so I can reproduce the bug?

Thanks Luca
