I will say I've never heard of ntop.sh, so I really can't answer for problems with it. I have compiled and run ntop 2.1.2 on FreeBSD 5.0... If you chown nobody, does root have read/write access? Otherwise, it will not retrieve the password, think it's not defined and ask you for it... -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of The Jetman Sent: Thursday, August 01, 2002 5:22 PM To: NTOP Mail List Subject: [Ntop] {FreeBSD 4.5-R] NTOP-2.1.2 Isn't Working Properly Anymore.... Love NTOP, since I started using it a couple of weeks ago. I installed it from the ntop-2.0.tgz FBSD-specific pkg. Worked almost exactly as expected and was installed and operational in less than five mins. Okay, I see what mite be bugs in the system, so I d/l the latest tarball (2.1.2) and did the following: 1) ./configure ; gmake ; gmake install 2) edit ntop.sh 2a) add args = -S1 -P /var/db/ntop ; interface = wi0 3) chown nobody /var/db/ntop That's it. Only now NTOP is really acting buggy. I put the startup script in the bild directory and run it w/ max debug msgs (-t5) and don't see any errors. That is, except for a never-ending stream of 'Host not found' messages sent to the console. Also, the Stats:Network Load link doesn't display graphs any more ! A single link is presented w/ the date/time, which displays the table w/ the top three sending/receiving hosts on a minute-by-minute basis. Another observation: prior to adding the -S1 option, NTOP used the directory spec'd by the -P option. However, upon adding the -S1 option, it immed prompted for the pswd again and placed the *.db files in /usr/local/var/ntop ! That's not mentioned in the man page, so I presume that's is a bug ? If I re-install the 2.0 pkg, NTOP is operational again. So my question is: what did I do wrong w/ 2.1.2 ? =============== From the desk of Jethro Wright, III ================ + Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their + + shoes.
