Latest news: ntop runs fine if I start it manually, with the following
command string:
znetmon# /usr/local/bin/ntop -d -u ntop -P /home/ntop/databases
-K -L -t 6 -o -i em0 -m
192.168.8.0/24,192.168.10.0/24,192.168.11.0/24,192.168.12.0/24,192.168.13.0/24,192.168.15.0/24,192.168.24.0/24
-w 192.168.10.68:3000 -W 0 -D mycompany.com.com
Anyone have any hints for me?
Kurt
