RE: [Ntop] ntop on VT100

[Burton M. Strauss III]

Nope... with v2, ntop is the collector and web server - the web page *is* the output.  Sniffying is the last output one would expect to see unless the trace flag is set.   Basically - but understandably - your expectation is wrong...  unfortunately, the overview page on http://www.ntop.org is outdated (v1.3) and doesn't reflect the new version.   Intop is a cut down version, but hasn't been brought up to full functionality.  I'm not surprised it doesn't run...   -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Glastris, Jonathan Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2002 2:00 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [Ntop] ntop on VT100 I just installed the ntop package for Solaris 2.8 and when I type ntop, this is what I get in my SSH terminal window:   bash-2.05# ntop ntop v.1.3.1 MT [sparc-sun-solaris2.8] listening on [eri0,eri0:0].

Thanks to whomever can help me out. - Jonathan
