Normally, I'd suggest you contact the idiot who provided the ntop-3.0-freebsdports.tgz file, except that it's me. And that's EXACTLY what I use on Owl, my development test box under both 4.9 and 5.2... So I know it works...
So... Assuming you don't have a fancy -w option, ntop should bind to all available IPs on port 3000. -w 3000 means port 3000 on all interfaces, -w a.b.c.d:3000 would be port 3000 on ONLY ip a.b.c.d I would: 1. Use ps to make sure the base ntop process is still running. 2. Read through the log file and see if there are any startup error messages. There's a lot of stuff in here about the entire process. You may want to add -t 4 to see it all. 3. Use netstat -a to check if ntop is bound to port 3000 4. Try another browser. 5. Make sure you are sending a legal request - ntop checks the input pretty aggressively and if you send an illegal request will lock you out for approx 5 minutes. -----Burton > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Joey > Troy > Sent: Friday, April 30, 2004 5:04 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Ntop] ntop freebsd 5.2 web access not working > > > I am currently not able to connect via the web browser to the site on > port 3000.
