I have been able to manually make the rpm.  However, the build process gave 
some errors:

mkdir -p ntopng-data-1.0.2_6836/usr/local/share/ntopng/httpdocs/geoip/
cp ~/dat_files/* ntopng-data-1.0.2_6836/usr/local/share/ntopng/httpdocs/geoip/
cp: cannot stat `/home/user/dat_files/*': No such file or directory
make: *** [maketar] Error 1

I made the directory and copied the /usr/share/GeoIP/* files to that directory. 
 Then they needed to be gziped.  If logged in as root the directory was 
/root/dat_files.

Next was:
rm -f /home/user/rpmbuild/RPMS/`uname -p`/ntopng-1.0.2_6836-6836.`uname -p`.rpm
cp ntopng-1.0.2_6836.tgz /home/user/rpmbuild/SOURCES/
cp: cannot create regular file `/home/user/rpmbuild/SOURCES/': No such file or 
directory
make: *** [build-rpm] Error 1

Created /home/user/rpmbuild/SOURCES, /home/user/rpmbuild/BUILD

Then:

+ rm -fr /home/user/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/ntopng-1.0.2_6836-6836.x86_64
+ exit 0
/bin/sh: ./packages/rpm-sign.exp: /usr/bin/expect: bad interpreter: No such 
file or directory
make: *** [build-rpm] Error 126

I installed expect which added tcl as a dependancy.

Next was:

spawn rpm --addsign 
/home/user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/ntopng-1.0.2_6836-6836.x86_64.rpm
error: You must set "%_gpg_name" in your macro file
Pass phrase check failed
send: spawn id exp4 not open
    while executing
"send -- "\r""
    (file "./packages/rpm-sign.exp" line 7)
make: *** [build-rpm] Error 1

Which I didn't mess with as I didn't need it signed.

Suggestions:

The rpm always over writes the configuration file.  I'd like to suggest a 
"%attr(0644,root,root) %config(no replace) %{_sysconfdir}" for the ntopng.conf 
file in the spec file.

Also, could you put the build number in the about.lua file?

Is it possible to build an RPM from the SVN?  We are pretty committed to 
keeping it packaged due to rolling It out on around 700 hosts.

svn co https://svn.ntop.org/svn/ntop/trunk/ntopng/
./configure
make build-rpm

please resync (svn 6779) and delete first your existing RRDs. The ones that 
will be created will be much smaller.

Soon I will add the ability to disable data dump on disk for machines with 
little/no storage

Daemon crashed during the night.  Nothing in logs to help.  Started right back 
up.  Anything need to be done to limits?

[root@hostname eth1]# du -sh *
24G rrd
1.3M top_talkers

This early here there are only around 1500 clients 10K Flows.  Yesterday I was 
seeing a peak of 6300 machines.

What does the –P do?

thanks for the good news. I need to tune the storage as RRDs are taking a lot 
of space on my system. Is this the problem you are experiencing?

After release 1.1 I want to create a version of ntopng able to run on diskless 
systems such as those based on openwrt, but this will be after the 1.1 release.

Please tell me where most of the disk space spent.

Cheers Luca

Luca, congratulations on a very stable, clean RPM and release!!  Using Centos 
6.4 X86_64 we only had to install redis.  Worked out of the box with a little 
tweaking for storage volumes, internal networks, etc.  Wow is this impressive!

We have put the 6712 rpm build on a host with 6500 machines behind it.  Runtime 
for ntopng so far is 2:47.  During that time its used 22GB of storage.  I am 
using the "–P" switch which I though turned off the client persistence.  When 
we put it on the hosts with 70 – 240 K clients, how much storage is going to be 
required?  Is there a way to not track individual machines but keep the network 
stats?

Thanks!
