Ah, maybe give it a fixed IP address :) Sorry - not much help. I can see where it could possibly cause problems even if it gets the same IP every time. I'm sure someone (Luca, Burton, et all) could fix it - but it's beyond what I can do.
If your machine NEEDS a DHCP addy with a ~ 24hr lease, maybe add a second NIC to your system with no ip just for ntop? Again, doesn't "fix" the code but does resolve the problem.

This was successful, except for this problem. The computer I'm testing this on uses DHCP to obtain its IP address. Every time this happens, this new version of Ntop crashes. It's happened three times now. Each time, this is the output as shown in the syslog: Aug 19 01:48:15 ge40403 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to X.X.X.65 port 67 Aug 19 01:48:15 ge40403 kernel: ntop[1255]: segfault at 38 ip 00204d63 sp b1e665c4 error 6 in libntop-3.3.7.so[1bf000+65000] Aug 19 01:48:15 ge40403 dhclient: DHCPACK from X.X.X.65 Aug 19 01:48:15 ge40403 kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode Aug 19 01:48:15 ge40403 dhclient: bound to X.X.X.70 -- renewal in 41094 seconds. I've removed the IP network address for privacy reasons, but those X's represent the same three numbers each time. This doesn't happen when I run Ntop version 3.3 on the same system. I'm running the new Ntop now with the --disable-decoders flag set to see if the problem is in the decoders. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, is there a fix? _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [email protected] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop <font size="1"> <div style='border:none;border-bottom:double windowtext 2.25pt;padding:0in 0in 1.0pt 0in'> </div> "This email is intended to be reviewed by only the intended recipient and may contain information that is privileged and/or confidential.
