Hi,

Some further info... By playing on a Linux install I found you need to
specify local subnets with -m when using -f. This gets round my initial
problem (ntop immediately exiting), but unfortunately now it crashes as
soon as it starts up, e.g. 

        C:\Program Files\Utils\ntop-Win32>ntop /c -f
d:\temp\ta\eth2c0-pssl-generic.dmp -m 10.50.2.0/24
        Running ntop for Win32.

        Message box with "ntop.exe has generated errors and will be
closed by Windows".

This is with the same dump file that runs OK on the Linux box (my
Windows PC is much faster than the Linux machine, hence my desire to do
the analysis on it).
