Sorry everyone - I know this may well have been discussed many times before
but I can't find this in the archives and I have no idea what to do next or
where the problem may be. I may be inexperienced but I'm learning very fast!

I have now updated libpcap to 0.8.3 and still get the same error - has
anyone got past this on OSX 10.3 and nTop 3? Should I be starting ntop with
more parameters than I currently do?

I'm not sure what you meant when you mentioned added in 0.7.1 Burton?

The error is still:

[G3-Laptop:local/ntop/bin] reab% dyld: ./ntop Undefined symbols:
_pcap_lib_version
_pcap_lib_version

Well, those symbols are for libpcap, the packet capture library, which is
the single most important of the required libraries.

IIRC, pcap_version was added in 0.7.1 (but I'm fuzzy on that).

Try installing or upgrading your libpcap.
