Subject: [Ntop] Current view on "best" OS for nTop

 

What's the current thought on the "best" OS for nTop?  I need a
bigger/better system and my boss wants my team out of the *nix support
area, so wants me to get a Solaris VM from the Unix team for nTop.  I've
seen some have various issues with installing nTop on Solaris so I'm
kinda hesitant.  My other preferred option is Suse since we have/had a
relationship with Novell.

 

Any input would be appreciated!

 

Gary

I've found that Slackware Linux works very well for this.  I follow the
rrdbuild instructions starting with freetype
(http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/doc/rrdbuild.en.html) then do the build,
create an rc.ntop script, and away I go.
