Right - the patch I sent you gets past the failure to start the web server.
That's all.
You can speed up the '10 minutes' (no joke - it takes even longer on a VPC),
by cutting the timeout from 5s to 1s in ntop.c (in packetCaptureLoop()
around line 750):
#ifdef __FreeBSD__
timeout.tv_sec = 1 /* seconds */;
timeout.tv_usec = 0;
#else
timeout.tv_sec = 5 /* seconds */;
timeout.tv_usec = 0;
#endif
The only solution I've found is to put back some form of the
--set-pcap-nonblock code from 3.0 that got ripped out.
