Luca et al... Per the reports of problems with graphics and https connections and your comments about broken browsers, I have conducted some experiments... It turns out that there are two problems.
First the results: Platform Browser https: result Win2K IE 5.5/128bit Text appears, broken image icon for graphic Win2K NS 4.79 Text appears, broken image icon for graphic Win2K NS 6.2.2 Kills ntop Linux NS 4.78 Text appears, nothing for the graphics Linux Mozilla 0.9.9 Text appears, nothing for the graphics Linux Galeon 1.2.0 Text appears, nothing for the graphics Linux Konqueror Text appears, nothing for the graphics Linux Opera 6.0B1 Kills ntop So, it doesn't seem to be an issue of newer vs older browsers or Win vs. Linux, but rather I can't get ANYTHING to properly return the graphics if it's an https: connection. I have also built ntop without zlib with the same results. The "kills ntop" needs an explaination. What happens is that ntop never gets control back from the select() call in handleWebConnections(), so the thread effectively dies and ntop stops "talking". However, the data collection appears to be going on. Eventually the browser times out, but the select() call never returns to ntop. There has to be some kind of difference between headers, etc. in NS6.2/Opera vs. all the others, but I can't see the interchange to find out what. I had hoped that I had found a tool, but it doesn't work with McAfee installed or NS... If it were Gecko related, I would expect Mozilla et al to have problems (i.e. it's not the TLS3.0 problem reported here http://developer.netscape.com/evangelism/docs/articles/gecko-compatibility/ and http://developer.netscape.com/evangelism/docs/technotes/tls-ssl3/. I have - anyway - tried turning off TLS and SSL3 - same symptoms... It appears that it loads the 1st page referenced (i.e. it loads index.html - the main frameset) and then hangs. If I manually load, say the index_top.html, I can navigate ONCE... If I give it a URL that has images, I see the text, but when it goes to load the logo or the gauge.jpg it hangs... I think this needs to be confirmed by others and then we need to figure out why Opera/NS6 are different from all others, and how to fix it... -----Burton _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop
