[in reply to dougy@bryden.apana.org.au, 18-12-2000] > I've installed ntop on two different machines ..... a 4.0 RELEASE where it appears to work fine, and a 4.1 RELEASE where it works in interactive (command line) mode but when I try starting in web > mode (ntop -w) I get > "-w mode is disabled for security reasons" I don't know about this one; maybe in the new version the .ntop file is mandatory. In this file you should specify the passwords for the web interface. If I recall correctly, it has to be in this format: username <tab> password username2 <tab> password2 etc. You might want to check out the ntop homepage: http://www.ntop.org/ > The only peculiarity I saw when installing from ports in both cases was > something about "lsof missing (whatever that is) so some functions will > be disabled" lsof is a utility to list open files/sockets. It isn't in the base system; you can get it from the ports collection if you have that (cd /usr/ports/sysutils/lsof; make install) or do it with sysinstall.. -- Walter W.
