This is a lot more complex, since both Napster and Kazaa do not use one fixed port number but dynamically assign port numbers when needed. If you look in the code there is an example implementation for Napster, which can be activated with a define. As I'm busy researching the network behaviour of such peer-to-peer applications and I think there are two options to make ntop monitor such protocols: * Write a plug-in to handle the protocol. However AFAIK a plug-in cannot access the content of reassembled TCP transmissions, which is needed for analysis of most of these protocols. * Modify the ntop source. As the Napster example indicates this seems rather difficult it one has no in depth knowledge of the ntop source code. More input on this is very welcome. kind regards, Peter _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listmanager.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop
