Hi
There is an error in the ntop startup file.
If you edit:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ntop
and find the line:
daemon $prog -d -L @/etc/ntop.conf
(This is in the "start ()" section)
Replace with the line:
daemon $prog @/etc/ntop.conf -d -L
i.e. The config file bit needs to be before the parameters.
It should then work when you do "service ntop start".
