netstat -an | grep 2055 gives the following

udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2055 0.0.0.0:*

btw the server is running SuSE 10.2; I noticed the same issue if I start
a capture session , kill it and try to restart.. the flow-capture
wouldn't restart; the only thing I could do was increment the listening
port...

Maybe the port got bound up somehow. 

Can you try a 'netstat -an'? 

If port 2055 is listed then somehow you got to kill it off. You could
try the flow-capture command using a different port and see what
results.

Hi Joe, 
  
This is how I've been running it previously 
  
/usr/local/flow-tools/bin/flow-capture -p /flows/pids/flowcapture1.pid
-w /flows/router1  -E4000M -S3 0/0/2055 
  
after killing this process (kill -TERM...) 
  
I tried to do this: 
/usr/local/flow-tools/bin/flow-capture -p /flows/pids/flowcapture1.pid
-w /flows/all_devices -E4000M -S3 0/0/2055 
  
and it wouldn't start...

Christian, 

Can you show us the syntax of your flow-capture command? 

Thanks, 

Joe

hi, 
I may have missed something in the docs, but I'd really appreciate if
someone can help with the following: 
 
currently running flow-tools.0.68-1, and I was successfully capturing
data. 
stopped my flow-capture processes, with the intention of just exporting
from my network devices to one dest. port. 
 
when I try to restart my flow-capture process I get the following under
/var/log/messages: 
 
2007-12-20T02:10:37-08:00 netmon flow-capture[6574]:
setsockopt(size=4194304)
2007-12-20T02:10:37-08:00 netmon flow-capture[6574]: bind(0.0.0.0):
Address already in use 
 
not sure what to check.. I know I don't have any flow capture processes
remaining... 
google'd the  error message, but no solutions seem to pop up.. 
 
pls help, thx
