I'm using ntop to see traffic going in and out of my box. It's not a router. Yet I'm seeing a lot of traffic not addressed to my host. AFAIK my provider has me connected by a switch. Does ntop do anything "interesting" to make a switch port promiscuous so that I'd see that traffic, or am I seeing a problem with the switch?

Here's what tcpdump shows (my address is 66.28.14.59 on a /28):

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# tcpdump 'ip and not net 66.28.14.48 and not host 66.28.14.59' -n
