I've just seen something in the log after restarting it again:

Wed 07 Jun 2006 12:50:12 BST  **WARNING** accessMutex() called
'dequeuePacket' with a self-LOCKED mutex [EMAIL PROTECTED]:2399]
Wed 07 Jun 2006 12:50:19 BST  **ERROR** RRD: Disabled - unable to create
base directory (err 2, /var/ntop/rrd)

Seems I'm missing a config change. I removed '/var/ntop' so I guess this
is the root cause. What switch do I use to change the rrd location, I
can't seem to find it?

regards

Zander
