There's a database that stores the passwords - I forget the exact name or location, but it's in the ntop directory where all the other stuff is typically stored. Browse around and after stopping nTop delete that DB file. I'll try to find more info later if you're still having probs.

I didn't notice it at first and went right to the web interface and couldn't log in. Did it ask you for one? -jaan -----Original Message----- From: Ernest G.
