Extra Layer7 defs?
by Scott - Sep 5th 2005 17:09:17
Anyone know of a way to add extra Layer 7 defs to ntop so instead of
"Unknown" it will display the application that is being used.
Like it does www, smtp, ssh, etc. But for those it does not know it just
says UNKNOWN.
Netfilter has a package of Layer7 defs, but I want to add that to ntop...

what happened to the good ntop
by elmuhfuh - Aug 13th 2004 22:58:57
when i ran linux i ran a console only ntop, it was like top only for
network ( i could guess thats why it was called ntop). the last few years
ive been lazy and stuck with netstat. tonight i decided to try out the ntop
that i loved in the past. wtf is this, an embedded webserver, ssl, all
kinds of shit. this should no longer be ntop as its veered very far away
from top. this should be called nsomethingnew. either release ntopOS or
leave it be.

Pretty good except for stability
by PaulM - May 10th 2002 08:05:15
I downloaded a snapshot to upgrade and although it built perfectly wasn't
stable, nor did the HTTPS server work; had to revert to older version which
is better, but still locks up.
Documentation is a bit sparse, I haven't found easily how to use my own
X509 certificate.
It'll be good if it gets to a stable release with better docs (although I
will probably contribute to these).

Snapshots are just that - a snapshot of the development. We've just
released 2.1, which has addressed the know stability problems (will there
be others... yeah sure).
Please give it a try!

Problem running on RH 7.2
by Anthony - Feb 6th 2002 16:01:51
I just compiled ntop (followed the directions in ntop/docs/BUILD-NTOP.txt)
and everything worked fine. However, when I try to run ntop it spits out
the following error:
Wait please: ntop is coming up...
06/Feb/2002 16:06:48 SSL is present but https is disabled: use -W
<https port> for enabling it
06/Feb/2002 16:06:48 Initializing IP services...

06/Feb/2002 16:06:48 Database '/usr/local/var/ntop/dnsCache.db' open
failed: File open error
06/Feb/2002 16:06:48 Possible solution: please use '-P
<directory>'
Is there something I'm missing here? I'm not sure what the dnsCache.db
file is, my guess is something to do with DNS but I'm probably wrong.

Anthony,
i think there is something wrong with the make install script,
but create /usr/local/var/ntop directory and that should get you
started.

Thanks, I don't know if what you provided helped Anthony, but I was having
the same problem, now I'm functional.

If you are already giving a -P parameter, then the problem is either
1) ntop is already running
2) you don't have read/write access to the -P directory
3) The directory doesn't exist

Segmentation Fault
by Casey McGinty - Jan 26th 2002 16:23:44
This program needs detailed installation instructions.
I think i did everything to build correctly, but I still get a
segmentation fault before the program gets fully running. I can not build
the files with the debug option due to compilation errors. Here is the
output.

There are detailed instructions in
docs/BUILD-NTOP.txt
We've just release 2.1 which should be a lot more stable. Give it a
try...

One great program
by Zarlox - Sep 22nd 1999 13:52:03
I have been looking for a good console monitoring program like this for my
gateway for some time now. And along comes ntop, truly a great program. I
was thinking about a console only based program. But then comes ntop and
blows my mind away with a really nice web based interface to all the
statistics. This is really a program I hope to see in all the major Linux
distributions.
