I'm trying to figure out why the ntop.sh startup script that is installed from ports fails to start ntop successfully at boot up but works fine when I call it after boot up from root login. I've included the complete console output. The actual "FATAL ERROR" is "Not root, ntop shutting down...". OK, why isn't ntop root? I thought startup scripts were called as "root"? Suggestions?

Thanks,

Drew
