Ntop is a great tool. I use to have the 3.2 version installed from a RPM on a Fedora 4 machine and that one use to be kind of stable.
Lately I got the latest stable version from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ntop/ntop-3.3.tar.gz and compiled that on Fedora 5 and Fedora 4 because I found no RPM available. All dependencies solved and it did compiled OK. I start Ntop with a command like: ntop -u ntop -i eth1 --daemon --use-syslog=daemon --no-promiscuous --no-fc or ntop -u ntop -i eth1 --use-syslog=daemon --no-promiscuous --no-fc & Unfortunatelly it will stay up for a while (10 min to xx days) and then will crash with an error similar to: FC4 crash *** glibc detected *** ntop: free(): invalid pointer: 0x089681f0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/libc.so.6[0xe511e0] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_free+0x77)[0xe5172b] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(ntop_safefree+0x27)[0x7c082b] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(freeSession+0x124)[0x7d63f0] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(scanTimedoutTCPSessions+0x1dc)[0x7d699c] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(purgeIdleHosts+0x3bb)[0x7ba08f] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(scanIdleLoop+0x22f)[0x7c16e3] /lib/libpthread.so.0[0x6fcbd4] /lib/libc.so.6(__clone+0x5e)[0xeb84fe] ======= Memory map: ======== Any Ideas? Also 3.3 does look great but is slow over a satellite connection compared to 3.2.
