OK, well mark me a just a tad confused. Why then, when I used 

	'pkg_add -r ntop'

did the message:

'Fetching
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest/ntop.t
bz... Done.'

show on my screen? Forgive my ignorance, but that seems to indicate that
it's using a package built for 5. Am I wrong?



However, per your thoughts, I did the 'make deinstall' and 'make install'.
Not happy. Gives message:

'ntop-3.1_1 is marked as broken: Does not build with XML dump support.'

I'm wondering if I should just grab the tarball from sourceforge, and have a
go at it.
