Hey folks, I posted this as part of another old thread but am starting a new thread for it because I got no response. I've also since found the nfdump mailing list but it seems to be dead. I was not able to find either of these guys in a CentOS repository anywhere, so I'm building them manually. Below was on CentOS 5.2. ---snip--- I'm going to kick this old thread because I'm just getting around to nfdump and nfsen myself, and am having trouble building nfsen. I do not see a mailing list for it so I'll try here first. I am using softflowd to pump netflow information from various linux boxes into a central collector. The collector is running nfcapd to capture everything. And I also want to run nfsen on this box to be able to view the pretty graphs on the web :-) I have verified with nfdump built on this box that the collector seems to be working fine - so far so good. Then when trying to build nfsen it complained about nfprofile not being there - so some googling later and I found that I have to go back and rebuild nfdump to include it. So I do : ./configure --enable-nfprofile which dies thus : [...] checking for stdint.h... yes checking for unistd.h... yes checking for rrd_update in -lrrd... no configure: error: Can not link librrd. Please specify --with-rrdpath=.. configure failed! But I check and I see I have librrd installed.

These all fail : ./configure --enable-nfprofile --with-rrdpath=/usr/lib ./configure --enable-nfprofile --with-rrdpath=/usr ./configure --enable-nfprofile --with-rrdpath=.. ./configure --enable-nfprofile --with-rrdpath=/usr/lib/librrd.so.4 ./configure --enable-nfprofile --with-rrdpath=/usr/lib/librrd.a What am I doing wrong?
