Installing ntop 2.1x
« on: August 11, 2002, 04:00:07 PM »
Hi all,

Anyone out there managed to install and run ntop 2.1x on SME 5.1.2 ? I can't get it installed (due to the same old problem about libssl.so.2 and libcrypto.so.2). The older 1.3x works but I would like to try the new one if possible.

Is it because ntop 2.1x is only packaged for RH 7.2 and above ?

This is an old issue that I don't think ever got figured out. Others were also able to run the older ntop, but none the newer versions. I believe Charlie even looked at it at one point (briefly I believe) and no answers were found. I think this would be a powerful add-on for SME.

Hi,

With a couple of guys of www.minddigger.com (a dutch forum) we we're able to get ntop 2.1.2 working on SME 5.1.2 and SME 5.5.

If there's any interest I can write you a small HOWTO (english).

Please let me know!

Hi Dillard,

Yes, please send me a how-to on this along with any links to any supporting packages / dependencies required by ntop.

Many thanks.

Kelvin.

I have installed as per how-to instructions . . . so far everything looks very good, checking to make sure it comes back up after reboot.

Opps, must have linked wrong, it did not come back up. Other than that it looks great. Seems that ntops range has increased considerably also, over prior versions.

I was asked not to publish the how-to as of yet . . . I have written and asked if I may send it to you.

Guys,

Have patience, the testing on 5.5 and 5.1.2 is done. The last thing to do is to produce a nice looking HowTo document and soon (think very soon) everybody can enjoy this good looking element.

In the meantime people can drop a line to http://www.vexins.com:3000 to see how this all looks and wait patiently for their 'system-tracker'. I can tell you all it's not as difficult as it seems.
