Title: Message
The OS in question is FC4.
 
I believe you've answered my question, but just to be sure; is there any risk to upgrading by simply overlaying the new Ntop build over the old one versus performing a 'make uninstall' of the original Ntop build first.
 
My goal is to preserve as much as possible from the original install. I just don't want to compromise the new Ntop install while I'm at it.

Um...
 
What OS? In the *nix world, we usually just run make install and overlay the executables.
 
Regardless, the .rrd data files shouldn't be affected.

Subject: [Ntop] Upgrade or reinstall

My Ntop server can't go much more than a month or so before I see mutex errors in the Netflow statistics and the collector stops functioning. It has just happened again and this time I plan to upgrade from the v3.2 build that I downloaded from the web to the latest CVS build in the hope that it will increase robustness.
 
Is there a way to perform an upgrade of Ntop (using source code) or am I better off to do a clean uninstall/reinstall. Assuming the later is there a way to preserve the RRD stored data for use one the upgrade is completed?
 
Thanks
