I had enough problems w/ 8.  Under 8 (i86) during the development cycle, I
was able to make basic ntop work using gcc.  That's about all I know.

Bluntly, I'm not going to bother with Solaris 9 unless somebody is
interested in sponsoring the work. I can't justify spending one cent on
Solaris 9.

Heh, :) thanks I wish it was an option. Sadly I have to support an Ntop
install on a Sun Netra 105 running Solaris 8.

Just to follow-up this thread the hack I made successfully on my Solaris 9
(Ultra 5) box did not work on the Solaris 8 install...Ntop fails to start
with the same error. So its back to hacking at it. I will say the 2.2.2
Install is running like a champ on Solaris 9. No more GDChart errors.
