The patches - at least what fixes the glibc issue on my system - are in the ntop_2_2_patches branch of the cvs.

There is a reason why the new version ends in .4 and not in .2 or .3 - the API is incompatible, and you cannot use these libraries interchangeably. The correct thing to do is to rebuild ntop against the new libraries - you will need to make sure that the proper .so links are set to point the linker at the right version of the libraries - having redhat's "-devel" packages installed should take care of that. Then again, it may be a moot point to try to run ntop 2.2 on Redhat 9.0 or SuSE 8.2 anyway, due to the glibc 2.3.x issues. I'd wait for the next stable release, since I believe the issue is being worked on... or run 2.1. or run an older distro (SuSE 8.1 is quite nice). --- insideout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I also had this problem.
