It's really just a stock installation :) On the commandline I had:
ntop -d -i eth0 -u ntop
Then I start it up and switch to the netflow interface....
Filename I downloaded from source was ntop-3.1.tgz. The second machine I set this up on has 1 Gig RAM, dual serial ATA drives running RAID1 (hardware), and P4-2.8 processor... it does some other stuff but load average never breaks 0.1 and nothing memory intensive at all... thought it would be perfect to add this to that box...
Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
I have ntop running on a Dell PowerEdge 1650 (with snort) running and everything is fine. I have ntop running from a install of NST (http://nst.sourceforge.net/nst/) running on a Dell PowerEdge 350 (P3 850 and 512mb of memory)....working just fine.
is it just NTOP taking over the cpu usage? how do you have ntop configured?

Hi there...
I installed Ntop on an older Poweredge box (PIII-500) and was trying to analyze netflow reports from a router that's generating 60 Mb/s of traffic.... it just about killed the machine..
So, I setup Ntop on a P4-2.8 and the same thing.. it just kills the CPU...
What size of machine do I need to run this properly? Dual Xeon?
Thanks, :)
Paul
