Package: ntop
Version: 3:3.2-8
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Since I suspect that the cause is in SSL error mentioned below, and
since shipped certificate is the one used on all the systems and no
directions are given that it has to be replaced for ntop to
function properly, I raised severity to grave.

Recently I've upgraded the box running etch. I could succesfully login
before but not now nothing appears on the browser screen whenever I go
to the same "ntop-url". Log entries in /var/log/daemon.log (and after
running ntop with --ssl-watched --trace-level 10) say

upgrades which were done:
2007-02-01 08:47:47 upgrade ntop 3:3.2-5 3:3.2-8
I believe it was working fine after this ntop upgrade but started to
fail after upgrade of libssl (and the rest of the system ;-))
2007-02-09 16:22:12 upgrade libssl0.9.8 0.9.8c-3 0.9.8c-4
2007-02-09 16:38:22 upgrade openssl 0.9.8c-3 0.9.8c-4

Also I can't login on another (ia64 arch) box running ntop which I
upgraded at the same time. But on it the problem is a bit different:
first it reports "SSL Error" if I run it in links, and then asks for
login, but it seems that my valid password doesn't authenticate and
error messages are:

ii  libssl0.9.8    0.9.8c-4       SSL shared libraries
ii  ntop           3.2-8      

I was thinking about filing a bugreport against libssl0.9.8 since may be
it had changed the way to signal expired certificates... but the problem
is seems to be in expired ntop's certificate so it seems to be ntop's
problem.

Thank you in advance
