Dear NTOP community,

I am running ntop3.2 on Fedora Core 6.  I have two ntop processes running using 
different config files and listening on different http ports.  One process is 
configured to listen on one ethernet card and the other on another ethernet 
card.  Each card has a separate network spanned (mirrored) to it.  This works 
great.

What I ran into is that I'm trying to do the same thing in another spot on our 
network where I can't do a span port.  So, instead, I feed the ntop box flows 
from one of our Cisco routers to port 2055.  This works fine for one process, 
but when I start up the other - the first process stops processing data.  It 
looks like it's working, but none of the data actually changes anymore - it's 
static from the time the other process was started.

What appears to be happening is that the last netflow plugin to get started 
trumps the previous one.  Sending data from the router to two different ports 
isn't an option in my environment :-(   I have each netflow plugin configured 
with a  different device name and different data directories.  So, I don't 
think the conflict is in that part.

Thus, I'm wondering if there's anyway to get two ntop processes to coexist... 
each using their netflow plugin and reading in netflow data from the same port?

Thank you --Greg Redder
