Actually it's doing exactly what you told it.  Did you give it a -u
parameter to tell it to run as somebody else?  NO... so nobody is one of the
defaults - read the man page.

Similarly, without a -P parameter, where is it going to look for database...
you guessed it - a default location... read the man page.

Let's see... "Also when I log into a.b.c.d:3000 it doesn't prompt for a user
or password so anyone can view the stats."  yes, that's how ntop works -
read the docs/FAQ articles on userids for more info.

Burton,


Thanks for the info I was able to fire up the beast fired up :D However I still have a few problems..


I ran command


#ntop -dw a.b.c.d:3000


woo hoo it works! The problem with this is it's not using the config file at all, it's running out of /var/db/ntop as nobody when it should be running from /usr/local/ntop as ntop. Also when I log into a.b.c.d:3000 it doesn't prompt for a user or password so anyone can view the stats. When I try to run

# sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ntop.sh start


it acts like it works however

#ps -aux

does not list ntop.  Not sure what I am missing but I do feel a lot
closer :D

Joey T.
