1. read the file ./docs/1STRUN.txt ( where . is the directory where you download the cvs files / extract the gz package)
2. read that file again


still puzzled ?


[quote from 1strun.txt]
Running ntop for the first time
===============================

The 1st time ntop is run, ntop will prompt the user for the admin password and
create a new password database file.

The most efficient way to do this is to manually run ntop with a limited command
line, let it create the file and then shutdown.

After the 1st run, ntop will operate without this intervention, unless the
password database ntop_pw.db can not be found, which is treated as a 1st time
run.
[/endquote]


in short: there are NO DEFAULT credentials in ntop. you must provide them at first run.

Also, if you have started ntop once already, and you want to change the password: make sure ntop is stopped and then start ntop, but instead of the "-d" command line switch, for daemon mode, give it the "-A" switch.

from the help provided by the binary:
#./ntop -?

.....snip.....
[-A] Ask admin user password and exit
