Thanks Burton,
 
    I will have to stay with a supported platform.  I wish I was a strong programmer, but I am very far from it.  If I was a strong programmer I would pitch in and help.
 
 
Thanks so much,
 
Shane
 
PS OpenBSD 3.6 produced the same error.

Do ya think it might just mean what it says??  It actually does.  "It will almost certainly fail".  Yup!
 
Read the back traffic on ntop-dev..  In the case of OpenBSD, two of us have tried it at different times over the last years.  3.2/3.3 were hopeless.  3.4/3.5 were closer to mainstream *nix and Justin (?) thought he had it working until he tried to actually use ntop.  3.6 might have a better chance at success or it might be just as bad as 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 ... no clue.
 
     Please keep the ntop-dev mailing list updated with any successes you have ...
 
Means that what it needs is somebody with some programming skills who cares to work on it.  If that's you, great.  Otherwise, use a supported platform.
 
If you do attempt this - and more power to you - please move to ntop-dev.

I get the following error when trying to build ntop 3.0 from source.  Can anyone help me resolve this, or should I just build it on a FreeBSD box?
 
Thanks

Checking for support status of i386-unknown-openbsd3.5, gcc...
 

Testing for special configuration options for OPENBSD
