I have compiled NTOP 3.2.2 using MingW with a guide I found on the net. 
It works much better then the OPENEXTRA version I had before.

The only thing it is not doing is resolving local IP addresses to names. 
All Windows based machines register with DNS and WINS.  I have a few MAC
OS X machines that register with DNS but I cannot get all my MAC systems
to do it since they go across several VLANS and the static DHCP mapping on
my DNS 2k3 server wont assign them an IP if they move from one VLAN to
another. (thats another subject - MAC computers register with DNS via DHCP)

I have the MAC machines in WINS until I can get the DHCP and VLAN stuff
working.

I can do a NSLOOKUP from a MAC or a PC using my DNS server and it works.
This means the WINS lookup is working.  NTOP shows all names that are PTR
records in DNS but do not show any that reside in WINS.  I have the WINS
lookups feature enabled in my DNS server.

Is there a way to make NTOP resolve these names?
