Not a
bloody clue ...
Your message to ntop or ntop-dev has been seen.
However,
you have:
* neglected to provide important
information
- using the built-in problem report form is
STRONGLY suggested.
* appear not to have taken advantage of existing
information
or
* haven't taken other steps we ask you to do
when posting to the
mailing list
Hence this
semi-automated response.
Posting guidelines are in the docs/FAQ file in
the source tree, and
(although perhaps not the latest copy) in the "HOWTO ask
for help"
item at http://snapshot.ntop.org and at http://www.ntopsupport.com
in the documentation
section.
1. ONE and only ONE problem / issue / question per
message.
With a meaningful
subject.
The goal is that if you're asking a
common question, the
subject would have allowed you
to find it in the back
traffic for the mailing
list.
2. Search the back traffic on these lists. There is a
searchable archive
at http://search.gmane.org
3. Read the docs/FAQ file in
the source. You should get a recent version, not one
from
some old source .tgz. As a last resort, a HTMLed version is posted in
the
documentation section of http://www.ntopsupport.com.
4. Check snapshot, http://snapshot.ntop.org -
this is a community FAQ collection.
Entries from snapshot are
migrated into docs/FAQ fairly routinely, but the
newest stuff
(and some oldies but goodies) are at snapshot.
HOWEVER, DO
NOT USE THE .gz FILES FROM
SNAPSHOT - they are
incomplete.
5. We support only the current versions of ntop. This
is either:
* the last release,
v2.2c.
* the cvs (and tell us the last time you did
a checkout)
or
* the latest
development version posted at
SourceForge
(if there is one
posted)
If you use a port/package and the latest
version available for your
OS is some release candidate
from a year ago, sorry. Contact the
packager and ask
them to get current.
6. Post the information about your environment we
ask for.
We STRONGLY suggest you use the automatically
generated "Problem Report"
form that since it contains
much of the necessary information.
7. Make sure you're in a supported
environment (./configure --showoses).
If it's an
unsupported environment, we're interested in your efforts
to
make ntop work, but we don't have the time, resources,
knowledge and/or
interest to do it ourselves.
8.
For software 'crashes', please run ntop under the gdb debugger and
capture
the full failure information. Brief instructions
on using gdb are in the
docs/FAQ file.

Hi.
I have a big problem.
I installed ntop in 2 LANs (small one
and big one).
In my small LAN I don�t have problem, it has 128Mb of RAM
and 1 processor. But in my big LAN the processes is stopped after a time, it
has 4Gb of RAM and 4 procesors (700Mhz each one), RedHat 9. The message is:
"ntop interrumpido pero existe un archivo pid" (spanish), in english is:
ntop interrupted but exists a pid file.
I think that there are many users in my LAN that ntop stops, or what is
the problem.
What can I do?
Regards
