[Ntop] Ntop Installation problem

Fri, 05 Aug 2005 03:10:26 -0700

Hi ,
My name is amit , i have just tried to install ntop on redhat linux 7.3 machine. I built the ntop from the tgz file and ran ./configure, make and make install. Everything worked fine but when i ran ntop from the command line first time it asked me for a password , after supplying a password it hanged for sometime so i aborted the operation by hitting ctrl + Z on the shell. Now when i type ntop on shell i get the following . The following is the output of when i first tried to use ntop. Please suggest how can i solve this. Also i would like to see Ntop in GUI of linux. Can you please state how can i view the Network stats in GUI rather than shell prompt
 
Thanks
Awaiting your reply
Regards
Amit
