Hello,

More newbie trouble. As i wrote earlier, i am installing ntop-3.3 on 
three machines, and have got it to work successfully on only 1. On one 
of the machines which is running Fedora Core 2, ntop doesn't seem to be 
working properly though the config. on it is the same as on the host 
where it works. I start it using the command
# ntop @/etc/ntop.conf

And then it spawns almost a dozen processes, with only one running as 
the proper user (ntop) and all the others running as root.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

# ps auxf | grep [n]top
ntop     18290  6.6  1.2 127184 12564 ?      S    01:12   0:00 ntop 
@/etc/ntop.confroot     18291  0.0  1.2 127184 12564 ?      S    01:12   
0:00  \_ ntop @/etc/ntop.conf
root     18292  0.0  1.2 127184 12564 ?      S    01:12   0:00      \_ 
ntop @/etc/ntop.conf
root     18293  0.0  1.2 127184 12564 ?      S    01:12   0:00      \_ 
ntop @/etc/ntop.conf
root     18294  0.0  1.2 127184 12564 ?      S    01:12   0:00      \_ 
ntop @/etc/ntop.conf
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is my ntop.conf:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ntop.conf

--user ntop
--daemon
-P /var/ntop
--interface eth0,eth1,eth2
--disable-instantsessionpurge
--trace-level 3 # Which is the default
--use-syslog=local3
--numeric-ip-addresses
--http-server 3000
-w 127.0.0.1:3000
--disable-schedyield
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

When i try to access the web-interface, i get a errors like these in my 
apache logs (i'm using apache to proxy to ntop)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Sat Apr 05 01:28:43 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.3] client denied by 
server configuration: proxy:http://localhost:3000/
[Sat Apr 05 01:28:43 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.3] client denied by 
server configuration: proxy:http://localhost:3000/error/noindex.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's also a quirk related to the web server. If i change the 
"127.0.0.1" to anything else, ntop just doesn't start. So for the moment 
i'm forced to use apache to proxy.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

- Thanks and regards,
Siddharth.
