Ok  after more research i have determined that the
issue is caused when i enable eth0 or eth1.  I am
using netflow so i dont really need them so i tried to
disable them and it started working and stoped seg
faulting on the hosts page.  eth0 is connected to
nothing and eth0 is connected to a switched port so i
dont need them to work anyways.  

the best idea i have is that i am running vmware
server on the machine and it uses eth0 and eth1 for
its virtual machines.  i figure its casuing a
conflict, i tried running ntop with -s and promisc
mode off but it still seg faults.

but that is really not a problem since i use netflow
from a cisco router as i mentioned.  the issue is that
after doing this, dns is no longer working, in the
config i  notice that it has sniffed 0 dns after an
hour, i figure it works when eth1 is connected because
it sees broadcasts that it then picks up the dns from,
but netflow wouldnt have any dns to pick up.  

but oddly, it picks up a couple machines and does 10
or so dns lookups. is there a way to fix this?

thanks
