I do get asked to set a password upon first time startup.
I tried that password.
The whole reason I wrote this email is because that password and that part
of the code using the web interface and that password is broken.
I can set and reset the password via the command line many times, but that
is no help.
For example:
ntop -u ntop -A
ntop -u admin -A
ntop -u nobody -A
ntop -u www -A
All useless.

Hi ernest, 

The first time I ran ntop from the command line it asked me for an admin
password. 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?

I can view the ntop web interface at:
http://172.28.0.12:3000
And / or
https://172.28.0.12:3001

I see ntop working correctly with graphs and data and everything looks
great.
I try to change the preferences via:
Admin à Configure à Preferences
And I cannot log in!
I tried admin / admin
I tried ntop / ntoppassword
I tried admin / ntoppassword

I have set the password various ways like this etc:
ntop -u ntop -A

No matter what I do I cannot authenticate to edit preference or any other
protected area within the ntop web interface.

I tried ntop versions:
3.2 from FreeBSD packages
3.3 from FreeBSD ports
3.3.3 from source

This is not my first time using ntop or compiling source code.

Here is how I configured this last try of 3.3.3 before I gave up and emailed
this list:
cd /usr/src
svn co https://svn.ntop.org/svn/ntop/trunk/ntop 
cd ntop
./autogen.sh
autoheader
autoconf
aclocal
automake
./configure --localstatedir=/var/db --with-ossl-root=/usr/local
--with-gdbm-root=/usr/local --with-gd-root=/usr/local
--with-libpng-root=/usr/local --with-zlib-root=/usr --disable-ipv6
--with-localedir=/usr/local/share/locale --prefix=/usr/local
--mandir=/usr/local/man --infodir=/usr/local/info/ --enable-mysql
--enable-sslwatchdog --enable-jumbo-frames
gmake
gmake install
pw useradd ntop -n ntop -G www -s /usr/sbin/nologin
chown -R ntop:www /usr/local/share/ntop
chown -R ntop:www /var/db/ntop/
chown -R ntop:www /usr/local/share/ntop/html



I am stuck here in the web interface:
Admin --> Configure --> Preferences
