passiveSessions is just that - a table that tracks the passive FTP sessions.  You may 
have a lot of passive FTP traffic.

The constant that sets it is this:

ntop.h:   721   #define NUM_SESSION_INFO                 128 /* used in util.c */

If you have a lot of FTP passive traffic, you'll need to increase that.

Regardless, it shouldn't seg fault, but that might be somewhere else - please capture 
the backtrace etc. so we know where it's dying.
