OK, so I compiled by source. set the permissions on my db directory and
fired up ntop. It does not seem to be dying now all of a sudden. But
when I try to go the web ui, I get a connection refused in my browser,
which is weird because netstat shows ntop listening on the correct
ports. When I telnet from the localhost to port 80 I get a web page
back. So it seems ntop is accepting connections from the localhost but
not from remote hosts.
Any ideas what's up?
Thanks,
Gianni

Hi Burton,
ntop version 3.2
I recompiled without tcp-wrapper support (using FreeBSD's port system) but
my log seems to still show ntop trying to read /etc/hosts.allow, and it
still dies after a while. From my /var/log/messages:

Which version of ntop is this?
Give it a try without the top-wrapper - it sounds like that isn't
allowing connections... (note that you may need to work from the real
source for that).

Subject: [Ntop] ntop won't remain running for too long
Hello,
I just installed ntop 3.2 on FreeBSD 5.4 using the ports package, and
the install went smooth. I started up ntop just fine, and was able to
browse the web interface, so far so good. But after about a minute,
ntop crashes. I have left all the defaults alone, except explicitly
setting the HTTP and HTTPS ports to 80 and 443 respectively.
Here are some highlights from /var/log/messages
Nov 21 13:43:06 stats ntop[499]: warning: can't get client address: Bad
file descriptor Nov 21 13:43:07 stats ntop[499]: warning:
/etc/hosts.allow, line
23:
can't get client address: Bad file descriptor
Nov 21 13:43:35 stats last message repeated 14 times Nov 21 13:45:44
stats last message repeated 21 times Nov 21 13:47:11 stats last message
repeated
35 times Nov 21 13:47:14 stats kernel: pid 499 (ntop), uid 65534:
exited on signal 11 Nov 21 13:47:14 stats kernel: rl0: promiscuous mode
disabled
after that last message, ntop has stopped.
Has anyone ever experienced this? I imagine perhaps some tuning is in
order to get ntop to run stable? Also could this be from a lack of
hardware resources? I only have 512MB of Ram on this box, but it will
be dedicated to ntop.
Thanks in advance,
Gianni Jacklone
