Actually, it appears your resolver is NOT doing much of anything...

DNS Packets sniffed.....457
...
DNS Packets processed.....2

So there's very little DNS activity on the network to be sniffed...

DNS resolution attempts.....203
....Success: Resolved.....10
....Failed.....193
........HOST_NOT_FOUND.....193
...
Host addresses kept numeric.....193

So most of the host addresses are being kept numeric.


You need to figure out why ntop can't resolve the addresses and fix that.
ntop looks like it's working fine...

Hi,
thanks again burton, I try various things.

I am pretty sure my resolver does his work well.
I past here more details on my errors, it seem that only netbios and
names of external IP address are reported correctly:

Address Resolution

  less 'failed'.....218
  less 'reverse dns' (in-addr.arpa).....9

........Not found in cache.....203
........Too old in cache.....0


Queued - dequeueAddress():

........TRY_AGAIN (don't store).....0
........Other error (don't store).....0

All failed are for host not found!!!
I am on a linux box with redhat9.
I have put in /etc/hosts the right info for the loopback and for the ip of
the machine.
I have in /etc/host.conf force the order to: bind,hosts
I have put in /etc/resolv.conf the name of our dns that works with no
problems and also the string domain with our internal domain.

I don't know what to do.

Filippo.
